Detect prostate cancer early and pay attention to these symptoms

With the development of science and technology, people's lives are becoming more and more convenient. Science and technology benefit people's daily life and also help medicine. Many clinical examination indicators are specific and are often powerful scouts for early detection of murderers. So, what indicators of prostate cancer patients can explain the problem in the early stage?

The early symptoms of prostate cancer are often not obvious and need to be discovered through physical examinations, pSA screening, rectal examinations, B-ultrasound, prostate MRI, etc. Due to its hidden symptoms, many patients are already in the middle and late stages of the disease when they seek medical treatment, missing the best time for treatment.

Mr. Zhao, who is nearly 70 years old, found that his prostate-specific antigen (pSA) was high during a physical examination, reaching 5.78ng/ml; B-ultrasound examination showed that the prostate volume was 454cm, and there was a small nodule in one of the lobes. Mr. Zhao, who did not have any discomfort when urinating, was uneasy. Was there any problem? He mustered up the courage to go to the hospital for further examination, and was diagnosed with early prostate cancer. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and he underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. He got out of bed and moved around on the second day after the operation, and was discharged from the hospital 6 days after the operation after the stitches were removed. Regular follow-up examinations 3 years after the operation showed that all relevant indicators were at normal levels.

As the population ages, prostate disease has become a major health problem for older men, including common prostate hyperplasia and "hidden symptoms" prostate cancer. In Europe and the United States, prostate cancer has long been the first in incidence and the second in mortality among malignant tumors in older men.

The early symptoms of prostate cancer are often not obvious and need to be discovered through physical examinations, pSA screening, rectal examinations, B-ultrasound, prostate MRI and other examinations. Due to its hidden symptoms, many patients are already in the middle and late stages of the disease when they seek medical treatment, missing the best time for treatment. The final diagnosis of prostate cancer requires systematic prostate puncture biopsy, B-ultrasound positioning guidance and repeated multi-point puncture technology.

The best treatment for early prostate cancer is radical resection, among which laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is precise in surgical dissection, less traumatic, quick postoperative recovery and reasonable in cost. For mid- to late-stage prostate cancer, timely endocrine therapy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can also effectively control the disease, prolong the patient's survival and significantly improve the patient's quality of life.
