Résumé

Objectif

L’élévation sérique de l’antigène spécifique de la prostate (PSA) est révélatrice de pathologies prostatiques. L’âge, chez un homme, peut entraîner des fluctuations de concentration du PSA. L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer les relations entre l’âge et les paramètres clinique et biologique en cas d’hypertrophie bénigne de la prostate (HBP).

Matériel et méthodes

Un échantillon de 67 cas d’HBP, âgés de plus de 50 ans, a été diagnostiqué dans le service d’urologie de l’hôpital de Saïda entre 2007–2008. Les patients ont subi un dosage de PSA total (PSAT) alors que le PSA libre (PSAL) n’a été réalisé que chez 23,8 % des patients.

Résultats

L’âge moyen des patients était de 72,9 ans. Dans 82 % des cas, PSAT > 4 ng/ml dont 37,3 % avec un PSAT > 10 ng/ml. L’âge ne montre pas de corrélations avec le poids prostatique (PP) (r = 0,026, p > 0,05) et PSAT (r = − 0,036, p > 0,05) par contre il existe une corrélation significative entre PP et PSAT (r = 0,49, p < 0,01). Le ratio (PSAL / PSAT) moyen était de 54,23 % et plus de 40 % des patients avaient un PSAT entre 4–10 ng/ml dont 31 % avaient un ratio > 15 %.

Conclusion

Ces résultats suggèrent une éventuelle existence d’HBP pour des valeurs de PSAT entre 4–10 ng/ml associées à une augmentation du PP et un ratio supérieur à 15 %.

Abstract

Objective

Serum rising of prostate specific antigen (PSA) is revealing of prostate pathologies. Age may cause fluctuations of PSA concentration. The objective of this study is to assess the relations between the age, clinical and biological parameters in case of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).

Material and methods

A sample of 67 cases, aged over 50 years, was diagnosed in the urology service of Saïda hospital between 2007–2008. The patients underwent a total PSA (TPSA) serum assay whereas a free PSA (FPSA) was carried out only for 23.8% of patients.

Results

The average age was 72.9 years. TPSA was beyond 4 ng/ml for 82% of patients which 37,3% had TPSA higher than 10 ng/ml. The age doesn’t show correlation with prostatic weight (PW) (r = 0.026, p > 0.05) and TPSA (r = − 0.036, p > 0.05) but there is a significant correlation between PW and TPSA (r = 0.49, p < 0.01). The free fraction (FPSA/ TPSA) average was 54.23% and more than 40% of the patients had TPSA between 4–10 ng/ml whose 31%had a free fraction > 15%.

Conclusion

These results show the presence of BPH for TPSA values between 4–10 ng/ml associated with rising of the PW and a free fraction higher than 15%.
