Question by adriana: the patient has found cyst of lymph nodes in the prostate, this can be called that he has a prostate cancer?
my father is 73yrs. old, he visit to the doctor for annual check up now the doctor found out ( ultrasound ) that his prostate has lymph nodes, now is there a possibility that this become a prostate cancer?
Best answer:
Answer by Jo
Human have many lymph nodes in our body, include in the area around prostate.
Lymph node enlargement can be early sign of cancer, but also can be sign of infection.
No one here can tell you if it is cancer or not.
Your father’s doctor will have to perform biopsy to diagnosed your father.
Good luck.

PSA and Tumor Markers for Prostate Bone Metastasis?
Question by Sammy: PSA and Tumor Markers for Prostate Bone Metastasis?
This message pertains to the utility of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA), for the treatment of Advanced Prostate Cancer.
PSA writes Dr. John Lee (Harmone Balance for Men) is produced both within the Prostate Gland and the Breast Tissue. He further writes that the normal cells produce PSA, an anti angiogenesis defence when there are abnormally growing cells in the prostate. This seems to indicate that the PSA has no correlation with what is happening in the bone and anywhere outside prostate. Is this correct?
There are further questions:
(a) How do we monitor bone metastasis and other situations where the cancer has escaped out of prostate. (non-Bone Scan/MRI options)
(b) Are there other prostate tumor markers that can tell us the tumor loads/tumor activity in non prostate areas such as the bones.
(c) Will Acid Phosphatase levels inform us the status of prostate metastasis on bone.
(d) Are Osteoblastic/Osteocystic/Osteocytic rates right parameters to track.
Sam
Best answer:
Answer by Joe S
There are a few misconceptions here.
* PSA is manufactured almost exclusively by prostate cells. Although there are a few other cell types that can make minute quantities of it, their contribution is so small that PSA is indeed, for all practical purposes, a prostate-_specific_ marker.
However, that doesn’t mean it measures only cells that reside in the prostate gland.
* In a person with normal prostatic health, prostate cells reside only in the prostate gland. But in a person with advanced prostate cancer, most of his prostate cells have traveled to areas outside the prostate, typically the bones and lungs.
Therefore, for men with advanced prostate cancer, PSA is normally the single best way of tracking the cancer, since it correlates so well with the number of prostate cells in the body — both within the gland (if it’s still there) and outside the gland, and thus presumably cancerous.
(a) To specifically find bone metastases, one would normally use an imaging technique, such as a bone scan, a CT scan, and/or a PET scan (preferably one that uses 11C-choline rather than 18F-FDG). It’s unclear why someone would try to monitor bone metastasis without any attempt to image the bones, so I don’t know what prompts the question. (Not all imaging techniques use radioactive tracers, for example. And if expense is an issue, then maybe consider simple X-rays.)
(b) There are indeed other tumor markers, but none of them are specific to rogue prostate cells that are in the _bones_, as opposed to rogue prostate cells generally. Such tumor markers include: PSMA, PAP, NSE, CGA, and CEA.
(c) Yes and no. PAP (prostatic acid phosphatase) is useful as a tumor marker, but no tumor marker, so far as I know, can possibly differentiate betwee bone and non-bone metastasis.
(d) Yes and no. If you’re focusing only on the bone, then you are interested in overall rates of bone-building (osteoblastic) and bone-resorption (osteoclastic) activity. But you won’t know _where_ the activity is occurring.
Most importantly: In a person has advanced prostate cancer, bone issues are one of the consequences. But it’s much more important to tend to the cancer itself than to focus on only one of its consequences. If a car is heading downhill and its brakes are failing, one of the consequences will be tiretread left on the roadway. Rather than trying to measure and track the tiretread, it’s more important to find a turnoff, or a soft ditch, or (best) an alternate braking system.
Good luck!

Dr. Supriya Mohile Discusses Prostate Cancer in Elderly Patients
Supriya G. Mohile, MD, MS, associate professor, Department of Medicine, Hematology/Oncology, University of Rochester Medical Center, discusses the prevalence and treatment options for elderly patients with prostate cancer. Mohile describes prostate cancer as primarily a disease of older people. In general, the median age for patients with prostate cancer is 79, compared to the early 70′s in colon and lung cancer. Information that is usually uncommon for older populations is more prevalent in prostate cancer because of the higher median age. Major trials investigating new therapeutic agents have enrolled more geriatric patients because of the abundance of this patient type. This has provided more data on the risks and benefits of treatment for elderly patients with prostate cancer than other types of tumors. As the population ages and people live longer with prostate cancer it becomes more challenging to treat the disease. There is a need to be careful with aggressive treatment in earlier asymptomatic stages of prostate cancer, once the disease becomes more advanced or symptomatic an aggressive treatment makes more sense.

What happens if a prostate cancer patient does not want to get treated?
Question by : What happens if a prostate cancer patient does not want to get treated?
My father is 65 years old and has prostate cancer. His PSA is 280 and his Gleason Score is 7 (3+4). According to his doctors, the cancer has not spread to his organs, but has spread to his bones…very minimal. my father refuses to get any treatments as he’s in denial. he says he feels fine and there is nothing wrong with him.
i cant force him to do anything he doesnt want…i tried. so now i have given up and i am just trying to get him supplements and healthy food…to help boost up his immune system to make him a little stronger.
i am just curious what would happen if a prostate cancer patient does not get treated? how fast will the cancer spread in his bones?
i know eventually he will die. but i am trying to figure out how much time i have with my dad.
and if there is a natural way of fighting against the cancer…not to cure it as i know that’s impossible…but to have him by my side a bit longer.

Q&A: Does prostate cancer spreading into the bones can kill you?
Question by : Does prostate cancer spreading into the bones can kill you?
For those of you unaware of my situation, my father is 81 yrs old with prostate cancer stage 3 on his 2nd yr. He is on hormone therapy for one year. Only treatment cause he tried others already except for surgery.
I keep reading online that prostate cancer if it spread into the bones, it can kill you or it may not.
If prostate cancer spread to the bones, are there treatments? Chances of survival?
Is spreading into the bones and bone cancer different? how?
I know that by reading on hormone therapy, is delaying or preventing the cancer to spread, true?
(his cancer is in the lymph nodes so far)
I’m confused on the spreading into the bones story, so thanks for your answers!!!!
Best answer:
Answer by Matty
If the cancer spreads into his bones then it is prostate cancer in the bones. Yes the hormone treatment is hopefully stopping the cancer from recurring and spreading elsewhere. I don’t know the statistics but I would just accept that it is gone and will stay that way until you are told differently. Worrying about the ifs won’t help now, just enjoy your time with him.

Prostate is diagnosed more than breast cancer. But why isn’t there equal support for prostate cancer ?
Question by Mr. Answer: Prostate is diagnosed more than breast cancer. But why isn’t there equal support for prostate cancer ?
Breast Cancer out paced prostate cancer research $ 548mill to $ 306 mill according to NCI(National Cancer Institute). Even though there are more diagnoses Prostate Cancer than Breast Cancer by 230,110 new cases to 215,990( www.cancer.org/downloads/MED/Page4.pdf). There fundraisers for breast cancer like the pink ribbon fundraiser which is great but where is the ribbon for prostate cancer ? There are telethons for breast cancer, 10k runs for breast cancer, collection on airline flights for breast cancer. There isn’t equal support for prostate cancer even though prostate is diagnosed more than breast cancer. Why ?Why do we care more about women than men? Does anybody find this disturbing ?
Best answer:
Answer by S P
Because breasts generally get more attention in day-to-day lives than prostates? I’ve met women who don’t even know where the prostate is (can’t say I blame them for not knowing, lacking one, and all). How many guys do you know who don’t know where breasts are?

What to Expect from a Prostate Biopsy
Men who need a prostate biopsy may not know what to expect. Learn how the procedure is performed and the potential complications
Video Rating: 4 / 5
Dr. Elie Azoulay . Medical Intensive Care Department. Professeur Saint Louis Hospital, Paris Acute pulmonary events are among the most common complications in patients with hematological malignancies. These events often raise difficult diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Clinicians faced with these challenges need a vast array of clinically relevant information contributed by physicians in many specialties who have acquired considerable experience over the years. Pulmonary complications in patients with hematological malignancies may be related to many factors, including infection, tissue invasion by the malignant cells, toxicity and immune deficiency related to the disease or treatments. The multiplicity of the possible etiologies and frequent presence of more than one etiology in a given patient create diagnostic conundrums. Importantly, an early accurate diagnosis is crucial to improve patient outcomes.

How will I know if prostate cancer treatment has helped?
Question by : How will I know if prostate cancer treatment has helped?
I have had 41 external beam radiation treatments, 25 full pelvic treatments and 16 “Boost” treatments aimed at the prostate only. I am receiving hormone therapy also that requires one shot every three months. So far I have had two treatments.
When I was first diagnosed, my Urologist said three hormone treatments was all I could have as more would cause brittle bones. Now, this same doctor says I may have to take these shots for the rest of my life. When I asked how I would know if treatments have helped, he replied six months after I’m off the hormones a PSA test would tell. Now that’s really a Catch 22.
Has anyone experianced these same treatments and what are your results?
My Gleason score from my biopsy was 9, so removal was out of the question. My bone scan did not show any cancer there. I am told the full pelvic treatments were for cancer cells that may have been in the lymph nodes.
My Gleason score from my biopsy was 9, so removal was out of the question. My bone scan did not show any cancer there. I am told the full pelvic treatments were for cancer cells that may have been in the lymph nodes.
Several good answers, to the answerers who wanted me to go to link, I’ve tried and didn’t get anywhere.
To the researcher, read the post, PSA levels are no good as long as you’re on hormone therapy and I was told, I might be on hormone for the rest of my life.
No removal is what I was told as soon as I met with the Urologist who did the biopsy. I could overhear him talking with his assistant about what the tumor looked like with the sonogram while doing the biopsy. I can only speculate that the cancer had left the prostate. A bone scan showed that it had not got into the bones.
It could also be that the insurance company would only pay for one procedure and radiation was chosen.
There are some good answers here, there are a couple that refer me to a link that doesn’t work and one that sounds good except it doesn’t answer the question. I have provided all the details.
I guess I’ll just let this go to vote.

Answer by Panda
Welcome to the uncertain world of cancer treatment. You do know that there is no cure for cancer, only treatment that might lead to remission and eventually after a long passage of time . . cure. Malignant cells have the ability to lay dormant in the body and reappear after an undetermined amount of time. Thus, you may need to stay vigilant for the rest of your life.
Sounds like you need to have a serious discussion with your doctor. Here are some sites with information about prostate cancer. It might also help you to get in touch with others who have this disease:
