Defining prostate cancer with lethal biology based upon clinical criteria ischallenging.Locally advanced/High-Grade prostate cancer can be downstaged or even downgraded with cure in up to 60% of patients with primary therapy.1-5 However, what is known is that high-grade prostate cancers have a greater potential for recurrence and progression to metastatic disease, which can ultimately result in a patient\'s death.Patients with clinical features of “high-risk” prostate cancer (cT2c, PSA >20, ≥ Gl 8 on biopsy) are more likely to harbor more aggressive pathologicfindings.

There are no agreed upon guidelines for placing patients on activesurveillance (AS).Therefore, there are no absolute criteria for taking patients off AS and when to recommend treatment.The criteria used to define progression are currently based on prostat

The aim of this study is to evaluate the ability of the random forest algorithm that combines data on transrectal ultrasound findings, age, and serum levels of prostate-specific antigen to predict prostate carcinoma. Clinico-demographic data were analyzed
Prostatic calculi are a common finding on transrectal prostate ultrasound. However, it remains unclear whether they are significantly associated with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Our objective was to evaluate the association between prostatic calc
The introduction of widespread prostate specific antigen (PSA)screening in western countries led to a sharp increase in prostate biopsies and the subsequent diagnosis of prostate cancer.This phenomenon appears to be repeating itself in countries such as C
