Family History and the Risk of Prostatic Carcinoma in a High Risk Group of Urological Patients

Abstract

Patients with a family history of prostate cancer have a greater risk of the disease. In this select group of patients a positive family history was not associated with an earlier age at cancer diagnosis or a different histological grade of tumor.
