Prostate cancer is cancer of the prostate, which is a muscle-driven mechanical switch and an accessory gland of the male reproductive system, which surrounds the urethra and is located just below the bladder. Prostate cancer may not show any symptoms in the beginning. However, symptoms can be seen in the later stages, such as pain in the pelvis or back, blood in the urine or difficulty urinating. Other late symptoms such as fatigue may also occur due to decreased levels of red blood cells. The risk of prostate cancer can increase due to factors like race, family history and old age. Treatments might include chemotherapy, hormone therapy, radiation therapy and a combination of surgery and therapy. Other treatments include targeted therapy, bisphosphonates and pain medications. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. For all readers who are interested in this medical condition, the case studies included herein will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding.
