Abstract

Objective: Invasive surgical interventions creating acute stress may give rise to immunological and hormonal disturbances in patients undergoing surgery. Previous studies reported elevations in serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level following coronary bypass and myocardial infarction. The current study aims to investigate the effect of surgical stress on serum PSA level.Methods: Thirty-three patients who underwent open renal stone surgery, without any known infectious prostatic disorder or prostate cancer that may elevate serum PSA level, were included in the study. In all patients, serum levels of total and free PSA (tPSA and fPSA), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), total and free testosterone, C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, albumin, and ferritin and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were measured both at baseline and post-operative day 3. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for the statistical analysis. Results: The mean age of patients was 53.9±8 . The mean baseline and post-operative levels of the measured serum parameters are given in Table 1. All of them differed significantly between baseline and post-operative day 3, except for LH, tPSA, and fPSA. CRP, fibrinogen, ferritin, and ESR are known as acute phase reactants of the post-operative endocrine response. However, serum total and free testosterone levels, albumin, and FSH decreased on the contrary acute phase reactants in the present study.Conclusion: According to our results, serum PSA level was not affected by acute surgical stress.

Özet

Amaç: Akut stres yaratan invaziv cerrahi girişimler hastalarda immünolojik ve hormonal değişikliklere yol açabilir. Daha önce yapılan çalışmalarda kroner bypass, myokard infarktüsü sonrası serum prostat spesifik antijen (PSA) düzeylerinde artış görülmüştür. Çalışmamızda cerrahi stresin serum PSA düzeyi üzerine etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Yöntemler: Çalışmamıza açık böbrek taşı cerrahisi geçiren ve PSA'yı yükseltecek herhangi bir enfeksiyöz prostat hastalığı veya prostat kanseri bulunmayan 33 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların pre-op ve post-op 3. gün serbest (s-) ve total (t-) PSA değerleri, serum lüteinleştirici hormon (LH), folikül stimüle edici hormon (FSH), s- ve t-testosteron, C-reaktif protein (CRP), eritrosit sedimantasyon hızı, fibrinojen, albümin, ferritin düzeyleri çalışıldı. İstatiksel analiz Wilcoxon signed ranks testi kullanılarak yapıldı.Bulgular: Hastaların ortalama yaşı 53,9±8 idi. s- ve t-PSA, LH değerleri hariç tüm değerler post-op dönemde bazal döneme göre anlamlı değişmiştir. Cerrahi girişim sonrası endokrin cevapta CRP, fibrinojen, ferritin ve ESR gibi akut faz reaktanlarının serum seviyeleri yükselmektedir. Ancak bu çalışmada akut faz reaktanlarının aksine olarak s-, t-testosteron, albümin ve FSH düzeyleri post-op azalmıştır.Sonuç: Bulgularımıza göre akut cerrahi stresin serum PSA düzeyini etkilemediği saptandı.
