Abstract

Background: Prostate cancer is the third most common malignancy in men worldwide. Despite being a helpful biomarker in prostate cancer, Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is affected by different factors including Age, lifestyle, geographical region and ethnicity. Objective: To determine the Age specific serum PSA level among healthy Northern Iranian men and to compare the results of our study with the findings of other populations in the world. Methods: A total of 1271 men who were referred for routine check-up in a multispecialty hospital in the city of Rasht, in Northern Iran, were evaluated for their PSA levels by commercial ELISA method. Results: The normal Age related Prostate Specific Antigen range (0-95th percentile) in our study was 0. 0-0. 62 in men younger than 40 yrs; 0. 0-0. 75 ng/ml in 40-49 yrs; 0. 0-0. 91 ng/ml in 50-59 yrs; 0. 0-1. 33 ng/ml in 60-69 yrs; 0. 0-1. 45 ng/ml in 70-79 yrs group and 0. 0-1. 93 in subjects older than 80 yrs. Conclusion: The present study revealed the lowest upper limit of PSA level in all Age groups in comparison to populations from different countries.
