Abstract:
Objective To review the diagnosis of prostatic cancer in 317 cases encountered between 1969 and 1999. Methods The clinical data of the 317 cases were retrospectively analysed. Results Prostatic cancer constituted 2.2% of the inpatients of the urology department,9.8% of genito urological tumors.In recent 10 years,the new cases of prostatic cancers hospitalized was 4.2 folds more than 20 years before.Since the use of PSA assessment,the diagnosis rate of prostatic cancer especially the T 1 and T 2 cases was significantly elevated (60.2% vs 50.0%). The diagnoses rate of DRE and TRUS was 86.1% and 89.1% whereas if combined with PSA assessment the diagnosis rate of either DRE or TRUS was increased to 99.0%. Serum PSA level was intimately correlated with the grade and stage of prostatic cancer. Conclusions The prostatic cancer inpatients tends to increase.Serum PSA assessment is of important value in detecting early cases of prostatic cancer.PSA,DRE and TRUS are the cardinal means for the screening of prostatic cancer and when used combinedly the diagnosis rate and accuracy are elevated.
