چکیده
Aim of study Prostate cancer (PCa) ranks third in cancer incidence and is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Italy. The widespread use of the PSA test in clinical practice has been associated with a constant increase in the number of diagnosed PCa cases both in the USA (170 per 100,000) and Europe. In Italy the rate rose from 20 cases per 100,000 in 1976 to 40 per 100,000 in 1997.
