Abstract:
:Nowadays, prostate cancer is very frequent in men. The evolution of the possibilities of early diagnosis and the results obtained with radical therapeutics have brought this pathology to our attention. The physicians involved, either general practitioners or specialists in internal medicine or urology, must pay maximum attention to all prostatic pathologies, mainly in men over fifty years of age.
