Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the effects of motor-complete spinal cord injury (SCI) onprostate volume (Vp), total prostate specific antigen (PSA), free PSA (fPSA),free-total PSA ratio (f/tPSA) and PSA density (PSAD). Material and Method:25 SCI patients and 32 age--matched outpatient able--bodied controls wereincluded in the analysis. Vp was measured on transrectal ultrasound, PSA,fPSA, FSH, LH and total and free testosterone levels were obtained and f/ tPSA and PSAD were calculated for all patients. Results: Mean patient agewas 44.26±6.9 years. Mean Vp of the SCI group was significantly lower thancontrols (19.30±6.88 vs 26.96±8.79, p=0.001) while mean serum PSA, FSH,LH, total and free testosterone of the two groups were similar (p>0.05).Mean fPSA and f/tPSA were significantly lower (0.16±0.096 vs 0.28±0.18,p

Özet

Amaç: Motor-komplet spinal kord yaralanmasının (SKY) prostat hacmi (Vp),total prostat spesifik antijen (PSA), serbest PSA (sPSA), serbest/total PSAoranı (s/tPSA) ve PSA dansitesi (PSAD) üzerine etkilerini araştırmak. Gereç veYöntem: Yirmi-beş SKY hastası ve 32 yaş-uyumlu kontrol analize dahil edildi. Vp transrektal ultrason yardımı ile hesaplandı, PSA, sPSA, FSH, LH ve totalve serbest testosteron seviyeleri ölçüldü ve s/tPSA ve PSAD değerleri hesaplandı. Bulgular: Ortalama hasta yaşı 44.26±6.9yıl idi. SKY grubunda ortalama Vp, kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı derecede düşük iken (19.30±6.88mL ve26.96±8.79mL, p=0.001), her iki grubun serum PSA, FSH, LH, total ve serbesttestosteron düzeyleri benzerdi (p>0.05). SKY grubunda sPSA ve s/tPSA oranıkontrole göre düşük (sırasıyla 0.16±0.096 ve 0.28±0.18, p
