PG - 255-60 AB - This study analyzes the changes in serum and urinary PSA values in 28 subjects; 13 with creatinine clearance under 75 ml/mn and 15 with creatinine clearance over 75 ml/mn. Both groups were compared for prostate size, measured by transrectal ultrasound, prostate weight, serum PSA (SPSA), 24h urine PSA (PSAO), PSA clearance (PSACl), serum creatinine (SCr), creatinine clearance (CrCl), PSA density (PSAD), PSA/creatinine ratio (PSA/Cr) and PSACl/CrCl ratio. Mean values of SPSA and PSAO were 4.5 +/- 0.8 and 222 +/- 29.7 ng/ml respectively, values for SCr, CrCl and PSACl averaging 1.62 +/- 0.2 mgr/dl, 71.6 +/- 6.5 ml/mn and 150.5 +/) 32.9 ml/mn. Median prostate size was 32.6 +/- 3.9 cc, with weights of 40.3 +/- 4.9 g and mean PSA density (PSAD) 0.13 +/- 0.02. The results of the homogeneity study showed that there are no significant differences between both groups with regard to the variables considered in the study. SPSA values were higher in patients with CrCl < 75; 3.4 vs 5.7, but not significantly. There are no significant differences between PSAO and PSACl values for both groups, even though PSAO levels were higher in patients with CrCl < 75 ml/min (p = 0.1). PSAD values for patients with CrCl > 75 ml/mn were lower than those for patients with CrCl < 75 ml/mn; 0.09 vs 0.17 (p = 0.08). In the entire sample, PSAD levels showed correlation with SPSA and PSA/Cr values; R = 0.63 (P = 0.0003) and r = 0.5 (p = 0.009) respectively. Also, they were significantly but inversely correlated with PSACl levels; r = - 0.5 (p = 0.006) and PSACl/CrCl; r = - 0.048 (p = 0.01). No correlation was seen between PSAD values and the following parameters; PSAO (p = 0.7), SCr (p = 0.5) and CrCl (p = 0.27). When the group of patients with CrCl < 75 ml/mn is considered, PSAD values are correlated exclusively with PSACl values; r = - 0.69 (p = 0.008) and PSACl/CrCl; r = 0.68 (p = 0.009). Our data appear to indicate that there is a certain relationship between PSAD and the renal function although the physiopathological mechanism responsible for that is unknown. Nevertheless, considering the sample size, more comprehensive studies will be necessary to obtain more convincing results.
