摘要:: There is a trend for the cut-off point of Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to be lower and the number of biopsies to be increased for detecting prostate cancer. I divided patients who visited my institution for prostate biopsy into 3 groups based on the time of examination. The results were evaluated retrospectively.,The three groups were: group A, PSA cut-off point of 4.0 ng/mL and sextant biopsy; group B, 2.5 ng/mL and 12 core biopsies; and group C, 2.5 ng/mL and saturation biopsy. I evaluated the rates of cancer detection, localized cancer, T1c, high grade cancer, major complications, insignificant cancer and the pain scores, and compared biopsy number and cancer detection rates with PSA range. Only the patients with T1c and PSA 2.6-10.0 ng/mL were evaluated about high grade cancer and insignificant cancer rates.,Cancer detection rates, localized cancer rates and T1c rates were significantly high in group C. There were no significant differences in the high grade cancer rates, major complication rates and the insignificant cancer rates. A comparison between biopsy number and cancer detection rates was significantly high in the saturation biopsy group with PSA 4.1-10.0 ng/mL.,A PSA cut-off point of 2.5 ng/mL and increasing the number of biopsies results in the increased detection of localized prostate cancer. The insignificant cancer rate, the high grade cancer rate and the complication rate were not significantly different among the groups. I recommend a PSA cut-off point of 2.5 ng/mL and an increased number of biopsies, saturation biopsy particularly in cases with PSA 4.1- 10.0 mg/mL.
