Prevalence of Prostate Cancer in Patients With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury

Abstract

Findings from this study indicate a lower prevalence of prostate cancer among veterans with chronic SCI in comparison with age-matched veterans without SCI. Given the small number of patients with SCI and with prostate cancer in this study, we did not find any statistically significant correlation between the prevalence of prostate cancer and the level, duration, and severity of injury.
