ABSTRACT
Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the
serum PSA levels in patients presenting with enlarged prostate
and to evaluate the efficiency of serum PSA to diagnose and differentiate benign and malignant enlargements.
Methods: The authors evaluated the patients coming in surgical
OPD with enlarged prostate and were advised to undergo serum
PSA testing.
Results: The efficiency of serum PSA to differentiate Benign and
malignant lesions was 97.18% and 83.33% respectively. |
