Foreword
The word prostate has finally made its way into mainstream America. Through consumer advertising, pharmaceutical companies have made the treatment of certain prostate diseases as common as advertisements for soap. Now, it is not uncommon for some men to request a routine prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a test that was unavailable a few years ago.
