INCIDENCE
 Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common
cause of cancer and the sixth leading cause of cancer
death among men worldwide.
 RISK FACTORS: Age ,Race , Family history/age of onset

Histopathological Grading
GLEASON SCORE
 PRIMARY GRADE – Most predominant pattern.
 SECONDARY GRADE – Highest grade in all the samples.
 When these two grades are added together, the total is called the Gleason score.
 EXAMPLE if the biopsy samples show that:
 most of the cancer seen is grade 3
 the highest grade of any other cancer seen is grade 4, then
 the Gleason score will be 7 (3+4).
 A Gleason score of 4+3 shows that the cancer is slightly more aggressive than a
score of 3+4, as there is more grade 4 cancer.

Guidelines
 Average risk: annually beginning age 50 years with 10+
year life expectancy
 Age 45 if high risk: High risk includes African-American
men or those with first-degree relative with prostate cancer
<65 years of age
 Age 40 if very high risk: Very high risk includes multiple
family members with prostate cancer at early age
 If testing performed, PSA with or without DRE
