Prostate Cancer Diagnosis, Treatment and Outcomes in Patients with Previous or Synchronous Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review of Published Evidence

Abstract: The management of patients with prostate cancer (PCa) and previous or synchronous colorectal cancer (CRC) represents a challenging issue. A systematic review was performed in May 2022 to summarize available evidence about the diagnosis, management, and outcomes of these patients. Twenty-seven studies involving 252 patients were identified. Overall, 163 (64.7%) and 89 (35.3%) patients had synchronous and metachronous PCa and CRC, respectively. In patients with synchronous diseases, PCa treatment involved active… Show more

“…In our cohorts, antibiotics are routinely prescribed to patients, with fluoroquinolones being the most commonly used antibiotic. A systematic review regarding prostate cancer synchronous/metachronous with colorectal cancer by Celentano et al reported that it was probably due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors [ 31 ]. Due to prostate cancer frequently occurring in older men, sharing same environment may have contributed to it being synchronous with rectal cancer.…”

“…Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequent cancer in the male population, with an estimated 1.1 million diagnoses worldwide in 2012 [ 1 , 2 ]. The highest risk of PCa is in men over 50 years of age or age > 45 years with a family history of PCa [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. The diagnosis is made by prostate biopsy in patients with abnormalities detected in their prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels or digital rectal exam (DRE) [ 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”

“…Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common neoplasms among men, and its incidence rates are increasing worldwide [ 1 , 2 ]. A cancer diagnosis can have a negative impact on overall health [ 3 , 4 ]. In fact, the scientific literature highlights that a diagnosis of PCa may lead to a higher risk of developing mental disorders [ 5 ] and a higher prevalence of suicidal ideation [ 6 , 7 ].…”
