Diagnostic yield and outcome of transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy in Sri Lanka.

The Ceylon medical journal
The study was aimed to determine the diagnostic yield and outcome of transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSPB) in a cohort of Sri Lankan men. A prospective study was conducted among 333 (median age: 70 years, range:48-88) men from a sing...

Early Experience with Salvage Robotic-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in Proton Beam Radiotherapy Failures.

Balkan medical journal
AIMS: To assess the perioperative and short-term functional and oncologic outcomes of the salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (sRARP), after recurrence following primary proton beam therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer.

[Efficacy of Neoadjuvant Endocrine Therapy for Prostate Ductal Carcinoma with Large Multiple Cysts Prior to Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy].

Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica
A 71-year-old man with gross hematuria and urinary retention showed a 7×8 cm polycystic mass compressing the prostate on the right ventral side on pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The prostate specific antigen (PSA) level was 6.47 ng/ml. Pros...

[Prostate cancer pathologic features in men ≤55 years treated with robot assisted radical prostatectomy.].

Archivos espanoles de urologia
OBJECTIVE: Among western males, prostate cancer is the most frequent oncological disease. Since the widespread of PSA, diagnoses in younger adults is increasing. The aim of this study is to analyze pathological features and biochemical recurrence eve...

Incidence and location of positive surgical margin among open, laparoscopic and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in prostate cancer patients: a single institutional analysis.

Japanese journal of clinical oncology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the positive surgical margin rates and locations in radical prostatectomy among three surgical approaches, including open radical prostatectomy, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Impact of metformin on serum prostate-specific antigen levels: Data from the national health and nutrition examination survey 2007 to 2008.

Medicine
PURPOSE: A possible association between metformin use and the development of prostate cancer (PCa) has been reported. However, there is limited information on the impact of long-term metformin use on serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. We i...

Retzius Space Preservation Technique for Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy in a Kidney Transplant Patient: First Case in Thailand and Our First Experience.

Transplantation proceedings
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to report our experience in robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for the treatment of localized prostate cancer in a kidney transplant recipient.

Classifying prostate cancer patients based on total prostate-specific antigen and free prostate-specific antigen features by support vector machine.

Journal of cancer research and therapeutics
AIMS OF STUDY: In this work, we enhanced the role of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test by examining the relation between free PSA (fPSA) and total PSA (tPSA) value and other biological information such as age and volume of prostate. Our primary go...
