Abstract:
Objective To analyze the impact of age on the detection rate,grade and stage of prostate cancer in patients with prostate specific antigen (PSA) 4-10 μg/L.Methods A retrospective analysis was made in 426 patients with PSA 4-10 μg/L who underwent prostate biopsy and divided into 4 group according to their age less than 60 (n=33),60-69 (n=163),70-79 (n=202) and more than 80 (n=28) to compare the correlation between age and the cancer detective rate.Among them,115 patients,diagnosed as prostate cancer,were further divided into 4 group according to their age less than 60 (n =3),60-69 (n=32),70-79 (n=69) and more than 80 (n=11).The correlation between age and the Gleason score or clinical stage was analyzed in 115 prostate cancer patients.Results The detective rate in each group was 9.1％ (3/33),19.6％ (32/163),34.2％ (69/202) and 39.3％ (11/28).There was significant difference in prostate cancer detective rate among those groups.The cancer detective rate became significantly higher as the age increased (P＜0.001).In the patients with prostate cancer,the number of patients with Gleason score more than 7 in each group was 1 (50.0％),11 (37.9％),30 (44.8％),7 (63.6％).No significant correlation was found between age and grade (P=0.292 4).And each group had cases with localized prostate cancer was 2 (100.0％),14 (60.9％),39 (78.0％),4 (66.7％),with locally advanced prostate cancer 0,5 (21.7％),7 (14.0％),1 (16.7％),with metastatic prostate cancer 0,4 (17.4％),4(8.0％),1 (16.7％).No significant difference was found between each group and clinical stage (P =0.101 6,P=0.285 2,P=0.349 1).Conclusions The prostate cancer detective rate significantly increases with the age increasing.There is no significant correlation between age and grade or clinical stage in the patients with PSA 4-10 μg/L.
