Checking PSA levels too soon after prostate cancer surgery can lead to overtreatment, study suggests
After surgical removal of the prostate to treat prostate cancer, clinicians monitor prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels.
Men with high-risk prostate cancer have a higher likelihood of residual disease after prostatectomy and may require radiation ...

Paradoxical PSA Association With Mortality After Radical Prostatectomy
Among men who had persistent prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after radical prostatectomy (RP), a higher preoperative PSA ...
After surgical removal of the prostate to treat prostate cancer, clinicians monitor Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels. Persistently elevated PSA levels indicate residual cancer and are linked to ...
Higher persistent PSA levels post-surgery were linked to increased mortality risk, with 8-year prostate cancer–specific mortality reaching 13.86% for a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≥ 1 ng/mL. The ...
A cohort study found that pre-radical prostatectomy levels greater than 20 ng/mL were associated with increased all-cause mortality risk and prostate cancer-specific mortality risk. Patients with a ...
Hormone therapy initiation depends on disease extent; some agents avoid testosterone flare, allowing ADT without Casodex in certain cases. Active surveillance is increasingly chosen for favorable ...

Among men with PSA persistence after radical prostatectomy, a higher preoperative PSA surprisingly was linked to lower mortality. Men with PSA persistence and preoperative PSA >20 ng/mL had 31% lower ...
