Effect of Chronic Prostatitis on Angiogenic Activity and Serum Prostate Specific Antigen Level in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Effect of Chronic Prostatitis on Angiogenic Activity and Serum Prostate Specific Antigen Level in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of chronic inflammatory pathology on the angiogenic activity in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Besides the presence of a relationship between serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) values and microvessel density (mvd), the intensity and extent (wi...
