Prostate tuberculosis mimicking prostate cancer: Case report and literature review - PubMed

Prostate tuberculosis mimicking prostate cancer: Case report and literature review - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38013327/

The multiparametric transrectal ultrasound performance of PTB is characteristic, and can be used for the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer causing elevated prostate-specific antigen levels in aged men.

Prostate tuberculosis (PTB) presents with elevated PSA and non-specific symptoms, diagnosed through ultrasound-guided biopsy. Multiparametric transrectal ultrasound aids early detection, differentiating PTB from prostate cancer in elderly men.

Practical implications of androgen receptor inhibitors for prostate cancer treatment - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38966166/

Antiandrogens have been used for the treatment of prostate cancer as a single agent or in combination with hormone deprivation therapy. New generation antiandrogens act like androgen receptor inhibitors (ARIs)....

New generation antiandrogens, like enzalutamide, apalutamide, and darolutamide, effectively treat prostate cancer, with choices based on safety profiles and patient conditions, while evaluating cardiovascular and metabolic risks is essential.
