The preoperative serum ratio of total prostate specific antigen (PSA) to free testosterone (FT), PSA/FT index ratio, and prostate cancer. Results in 220 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate associations of preoperative total prostate specific antigen (PSA) to free testosterone (FT), the PSA/FT index ratio, with features of pathology prostate cancer (PCA) and to investigate its prognostic potential in clustering the PCA population. PATIENTS AND METHODS After excluding criteria, the records of 220 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) were retros...
متن کاملPSA Screening in Prostate Cancer
Introduction: Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in Iranian men. PSA(prostate specific antigen) screening is a controversial issue because PSA screening leads to diagnose of patients with low risk prostate cancer who not only do not benefit from treatment but also suffer from complication caused by treatment. On the other hand, without prostate cancer screening, the rate of meta...
متن کاملPretreatment Tumor Volume Estimation Based on Total Serum PSA in Patients with Localized Prostate Cancer
OBJECTIVES To establish a formula that estimates tumor volume in localized prostate cancer based on serum prostate specific antigen levels. One of the main prognostic variables in localized prostate cancer is tumor volume, which can be precisely defined only after prostate extirpation. The present study defines a simple method that allows for estimation of tumor volume before treatment, which c...
متن کاملمقایسه "نسبت PSA به حجم بافت بینابینی" با "دانسیتهPSA" در پیشگویی سرطان پروستات
Introduction: Prostatic specific antigen (PSA) is an excellent tumor marker, but it is not specific for prostate cancer. We evaluated the accuracy of PSA adjusted for transition zone volume calculated by transrectal ultrasonography in predicting prostate cancer in men compared with PSA density. Material and Methods: PSA adjusted for transition zone volume was obtained from 100 patients who u...
متن کاملprostate-specific antigen (psa) density and free to total psa ratio in diagnosing prostate cancer with prostate-specific anti¬gen levels of 4.0 ng/ml or less
background: we aimed to value the usefulness of free to total prostate-specific antigen and prostate-specific antigen (psa) density for prostate cancer in the patients with psa levels of 4.0 ng/ml or less. methods: a total of 343 subjects with psa levels of 4.0 ng/ml or less were biopsied. all patients were divided into four groups according to the psa levels: 0 to 1.0 ng/ml, 1.1 to 2.0 ng/ml, ...
