Prostate: The Silent Cancer

Prostate Cancer (Silent Cancer) In Türkiye, it is the second most common cancer in men and the most common cancer in men over 55. The risk increases fourfold, especially if there is a family history of prostate cancer. It is also called the silent cancer because it causes no symptoms in the early stage. Prostate cancer can be diagnosed through an examination by a urologist and a simple blood test called PSA. A man with a family history of prostate cancer should have a urological examination at age 40, and a man without such a history at age 45 at the latest. If prostate cancer is diagnosed early, it can be treated even with active surveillance. If diagnosis is delayed, it can spread to nearby lymph nodes, bones, the bladder, the rectum and other organs.
