RESULTS
Mean age of patients was 62.35±6.64 years. There were 1959 and 495
patients in groups 1 and 2, respectively. Groups were distributed
similarly with respect to PSA value on diagnosis, Gleason grade groups
of biopsy pathology and D’amico risk group. (Table 1) Pre-diagnostic
properties were similar between two groups for each D’amico risk group.
(Table 2) Median elapsed time until treatment was 51 (38-65) days for
group 1 and 119 (104-141) days for group 2.
