ABSTRACT

Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent in the world and affects many men. There are screening methods which are dedicated to carrying out earlier detection and thus reducing mortality, over the years an attempt has been made to create new screening methods, but the most prevalent and functional ones continue to be the digital rectal examination and the prostate specific antigen. Although of course all have their disadvantages, and this is what has been tried to improve. In many cases, the patient does not present symptoms until it is very late, so it is important to recognize them in time. There are different treatment methods that depend on whether we have localized cancer or already metastasized.
