The management of elderly men presenting with asymptomatic, elevated PSA levels requires careful consideration of the risks and benefits of biopsy, cancer detection, and subsequent cancer treatment. In men over the age of 75years, presenting with elevated PSA levels, the prevalence of prostate cancer...
Large prostates, especially the ones with a volume over 100 cc, are commonly associated with elevated PSA levels. In men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), PSA tends to increase over time, something that also occurs in men with untreated progressive prostate cancer. These two factors lead...
Effects of a genistein-rich extract on PSA levels in men with a history of prostate cancer To determine whether supplemental amounts of soy isoflavone (genistein-rich extract) would lower prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels more than 50% in pa... RWD White,RM Hackman,SE Soares,... - ...
To investigate the post-prostatectomy and long-term outcomes of men presenting with an elevated pretreatment prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level (>10ng/mL), but otherwise low-risk features (biopsy Gleason score ≤6 and clinical stage ≤T2a).PSA-incongruent intermediate-risk (PII) cases were de...

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of prostate cancer in patients who have an elevated referral prostate-specific antigen (PSA), which subsequently falls to within their normal age-specific reference range prior to prostate biopsy. The study demonstrated that of the 160 patien...
Improvement of prostate cancer screening by determination of the ratio free/total PSA in addition to PSA levels In a retrospective study, we tested whether free/total PSA helps to distinguish between BPH and prostatic carcinoma in men with elevated serum PSA.METHODS... A Reissigl,H Klocker,J...
Using the free-to-total prostate-specific antigen ratio to detect prostate cancer in men with nonspecific elevations of prostate-specific antigen levels BACKGROUND: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels between 4.0 to 10.0 ng/ml have poor specificity in prostate cancer screening, leading to unnecessa...
In a multivariate analysis, the total dose (p = 0.017), the re-achievement of an undetectable PSA after SRT (p = 0.005), and the infiltration of the seminal vesicles (p = 0.049) were independent parameters of bNED. Conclusion: Our analysis suggests that patient selection during SRT for ...
11C-choline sensitivity was clearly related to PSA levels, was higher in patients with surgery and did not seem to be modified by hormonal therapy. Disease staging with 11C-choline showed direct impact for the selection of the most appropriate therapeutic approach. Resumen Objetivo Comparar el ...
