dc.description.abstractProstate cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men worldwide. Its incidence and mortality vary widely between countries and ethnicities. In Korea, the incidence of prostate cancer was much lower than that in most westernized countries, but recently, it appears to be rapidly increasing steadily. Prostate cancer has now become the fifth most common cancer in men in Korea since the year 2002. The recent dramatic increase in incidence may be attributed to the growth of elderly population, a westernized diet in daily life style, and introduction of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening. The prevalence of latent prostate cancers is similar around the world, but the incidence of clinically manifest cancers differs, with Asians having the lowest rates of clinical prostate cancers. Diet may play a role in converting latent prostate cancer into clinically manifest one. Fat consumption, especially polyunsaturated fat, shows a strong positive correlation with prostate cancer incidence and mortality. The mortality rates for prostate cancer have been decreasing in many developed countries, thanks to early detection and improved treatment, while the mortality rates have been increasing in Korea. Since a significantly higher proportion of Korean prostate cancers exhibit poor differentiation, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment may be important.-
dc.description.abstract전립샘암은 전 세계적으로 남성에서 발생하는 암 중에 서 4번째로 흔한 암이다. 전립샘암의 발생빈도는 국 가 및 인종에 따라 많은 차이를 보여서, 북미와 스칸디나비 아 지역에서 가장 높고 아시아 지역에서 가장 낮다. 1996 ~ 2000년에 전립샘암의 인구 10만명당 연령 표준화 발생률은 미국에서는 흑인은 272.1명, 백인은 164.3명이 발생한 반 면에 중국 톈진에서는 1.9명이 발생하여, 지역에 따라 많은 차이를 보였다(1). 미국에서 전립샘암은 남성에서 발생하는 암 중 가장 흔한 암이며, 암으로 인한 사망 원인으로는 폐암 다음으로 두 번 째를 차지한다. 2009년에 192,280명의 새로운 전립샘암 환 자가 진단되고, 27,360명이 전립샘암으로 사망할 것으로 추정된다. 이는 전립샘암이 남성에서 새롭게 진단되는 암의 25%를 차지하며, 암으로 사망하는 남성의 9%가 전립샘암으로 사망하게 됨을 의미한다.-
