“…Indeed, considering only total prostatectomy in the article by Bauvin et al (2003) which presented the costs / efficiencies of the treatment strategies, we realize that the cost presented is seven and a half times higher than those realized here. In the same logic as they, many authors have studied these economic medical aspects of the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer with each time variability in the results [24][25][26]. This financial aspect in addition to the area poverty rate leads us to believe that a very large number of cases of prostate cancer remain undetected, further reducing its prevalence and its rate of death Impact.…”

Introduction: The high mortality rate of prostate cancer in Cameroon, its high incidence, its prevalence, the lack of epidemiological data for the north which for the case is the poorest area of the country led us to conduct this study with for the purpose of presenting the epidemiological, clinical and para-clinical aspects, the cost and means of management with a view to setting up adequate management policies. Patients and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analytical study in the city of Ngaoundéré for a period of 5months. The data were obtained after a survey of patients and collection of results from the pathology registry of the Islamic clinic of Adamawa three months before the start of our study. Results: The prevalence and incidence of prostate cancer were 28.7% and 24.32%, respectively. The average age of prostate cancer patients was 66.5 years. Gleason scores were less than 6 in 44.44% of cases. Risk factors related to familial cancer cases were difficult to determine. The symptoms were dominated in patients by urinary retention associated with polyuria, dysuria and pollakiuria. The means and costs of care were scalable depending on the difficulty of achieving the technique.Conclusion: Prostate cancer remains a real health problem in the north because of its incidence and high prevalence and requires the implementation of a government policy of care.
