14994

Aim: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in elderly males in Europe. PCa is diagnosed by prostate specific antigen (PSA), digital rectal examination and prostate biopsy. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the relationship between PSA level, anormal digital rectal examination findings, age and the histopathological findings of the prostate biopsies. Materials and Methods: The medical records of 1181 patients who underwent transrectal prostate biopsy, between June 2010 and December 2014, due to suspicion of PCa with the PSA levels higher 2.5 ng/mL or anormal digital rectal examination findings were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Transrectal prostate biopsy was performed to 1181 patients. The median age was 63.9 (37-90), the median PSA level was 13.4 (1.63-371) ng/mL. PCa was detected in 397 (33.6%) of 1181 patients. The mean age (p=0.001), mean PSA and anormal digital rectal examination findings (p=0.001) were significantly higher in the PCa group. Conclusion: The mean PSA level and other findings, except free/total PSA, were similar with the current literature. The mean age of PCa detected in patients was lower than the literature
