摘要
为了探讨慢性前列腺炎与前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)的关系,从1993年到1996年检测了52例慢性前列腺炎患者和120例前列腺正常男性的血清PSA值,结果分别为2.14±1.39ng/ml和0.93±0.52ng/ml,统计学上两者有显著性差异(P<0.01),且对不同年龄段进行比较,也有显著意义(P<0.01)。但92.3%的慢性前列腺炎患者其血清PSA值均小于4ng/ml。结果显示慢性前列腺炎患者的血清PSA值虽有升高,但仍在低水平,介于正常人与前列腺癌患者的PSA值(≥4ng/ml)之间,并不影响其作为前列腺癌瘤标的作用。本文还对两者关系的机理作了初步探讨。
From 1993 to 1996, the serum prostate-specific antigen(PSA) of 52 cases of chronic prostatitis and 120 cases of normal prostate were detected. The results were 2.14±1.39ng/ml and 0.96±0.52ng/ml respectively, and with significantly statistical difference,(P<0.01). But the serum PSA value of 92.3% of chronic prostatitis patients were less than 4ng/ml. So the serum PSA levels of chronic prostatitis were intermediate between those with normal prostate and cancer. The mechanism of the relationship of PSA and prostatitis was also discussed.
