dc.description.abstract | Introduction and Objective:
In Kenya, prostate can-
cer is one of the most aggressive diseases ranking
only second to esophageal cancer, with an estimated
age-specifi
c mortality rate of 11.7. However, other
than a decade-old data on clinical presentation of
prostate cancer in Kenya, local studies on outcomes
are limited. We aimed to determine the incidence of
prostate cancer-specifi
c death in Kenya in the 21st
century at Kenya’s largest referral hospital.
Materials and Methods:
One hundred patients with
prostate cancer were reviewed from January 2013 to
January 2014. Th

radiological fi
ndings, Gleason’s score and outcomes…. | en_US |
