Prognostic criteria for different diseases of prostate
Abstract
The study involved 263men over 45 years with different diseases of the prostate, including the routine methods and complex immunohistochemical techniques. The use of this complex allows to increase the accuracy of differential diagnosis of the prostate diseases in the primary biopsies and detection of prostate cancer at the localized stage, reduce the number of unreasonable repeated biopsies, the need for repeated hospitalizations, postoperative complications and facilitate the work of a doctor. Results of five-year follow up of patients with verified prostate adenocarcinoma identified predictors of hormone-resistant cancer, which will help increase the efficiency of the treatment of these patients.
