Abstract:
4.00 ng/ml) were divided into BPH group (without inflammation), acute inflammation group and chronic inflammation group. The diagnosis was confirmed by transrectal-ultrasound guided needle biopsies. Prostate volumes were measured in all patients by the transrectal-ultrasound. A total of 126 patients were included in this study. The biopsy results showed 47 patients in BPH group, 45 patients in acute inflammation group and 34 patients in chronic inflammation group. Results The serum PSA value in the BPH group, acute inflammation group and chronic inflammation group were (5.76?3.21),( 8.67 ?2.92 ) and (5.54?3.01) ng/ml respectively. The serum PSA value in acute inflammation group was much higher than that of BPH group and chronic inflammation group(P
