title: [Prostate cancer].
abstract: This overview presents new studies on prostate cancer. The effect of dutasteride and the dependency of age, risk constellation, and tumor-specific survival on prostate cancer are described. In addition, topics such as the detection of prostate cancer by sheepdogs smelling volatile organic compounds in urine, quality markers, tumor size, and radical prostatectomy are addressed.
