title: [Determination of total PSA rate and Gleason score during prostatic cancer in Urologic Hospital Center].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To dress biologic and histopathologic aspects of the prostatic cancer in urologic hospital center about a set of digital transrectal guided biopsies.
  
  
  METHODS
  It is a prospective study realized between January 2002 and March 2002 (26 months) studying patients with positive prostatic biopsy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Seventy two cases of prostatic cancer were noticed. Mean age of these patients was 69,9 years (54-91 years). Mean rate Total PSA was 134,8 ng/ml (6-2500 ng/ml). Repartition according Gleason score has revealed that only 35% of tumors were well differentiated. The study of correlation between Total PSA rate and Gleason grade has revealed that up to 10 ng/ml Total PSA rate, only 33% of patients had a Gleason grade between 2 and 4 (well differentiated tumor).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Actual biologic and histopathologic profile of prostatic cancer lays emphasis on later management.
