Prostate-specific antigen, digital rectal examination, and prostate cancer detection: A study based on more than 7000 transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsies in Ghana

This extensive study of Ghanaian men undergoing TRUS biopsies reveals a high prostate cancer detection rate, with nearly 80% of the detected cancers being high-grade. These findings underscore the importance of PSA and DRE in the early detection of prostate cancer and should be considered in patient counseling and discussions regarding the implementation of prostate cancer screening programs in this population.
