A Comprehensive Review of Prostate Cancer Including other Primary and Secondary Tumours Involving the Prostate Gland

Samenvatting

Prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous malignancy in men in the Unites States, and the incidence in African American men appears to be on the rise. A somewhat similar trend has also been observed in Africa, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is therefore critical for Pathologists, Urologist and other healthcare providers in Africa to be aware of the various advances in the field of prostate pathology. My goal with this very comprehensive review of prostate cancer is to educate all those in the healthcare community in Africa on the historic aspects of prostate pathology and recent advances in the field of prostate pathology and prostate cancer.
