Abstract

The PSA has been the most useful tumour marker in the medical diagnosis so far. No other markers or screening methods reach the specificity and sensitivity of PSA. On the other hand the PSA has also false positive and negative results as well. The advantages and disadvantages of the PSA determination are discussed in our paper. The proper counselling with the papers and right evaluation of results should be diminished the disappointments in PSA.
