Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Early detection of prostate cancer has been recommended for men with affected first-degree relatives despite the lack of evidence for mortality reduction. We therefore evaluated the impact of family history in the Finnish prostate cancer screening trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Approximately 80,000 men were identified from the population register for the first screening round. Of the 32,000 men randomized...
