Prostate cancer is quite common in middle age and older men and represents the second most common malignancy diagnosed in this population. Only skin cancer is more common. Early diagnosis is important and carries an excellent prognosis. There are several management options available for localized disease and some new treatments which can be used for both aggressive and more advanced disease. When should active surveillance be used when prostate cancer has been diagnosed? How does radiation therapy compare to surgical prostatectomy regarding long-term outcomes and what are some of the newer treatment options available for advanced disease? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Daniel M. Frendl, M.D., Ph.D., a urologist from the Department of Urology at the Arizona campus of the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Prostate Cancer”.

Prostate Cancer Screening
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guest: Daniel M. Frendl, M.D., Ph.D.
If your practice includes middle age and older men, you’ve very likely diagnosed prostate cancer. It’s the most diagnosed non-skin cancer in men in the U.S. Its incidence rises with age, with a median age of around 66 years. When found early, prostate cancer is very treatable, and in most cases, curable. Prostate specific antigen, or PSA is very effective in detecting early prostate cancer, but its use has been controversial due to the risk of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. What are the current recommendations for prostate cancer screening with PSA? What’s the role of the digital rectal exam? How should we be using the PSA and what other tests are available for prostate cancer screening? The topic for this podcast is “Prostate Cancer Screening” and I’ll be asking these questions to my guest, Daniel M. Frendl, M.D., Ph.D., a urologist at the Arizona campus of the Mayo Clinic.
Tune in this Thursday for our next episode on "Prostate Cancer" releasing October 30, 2025.
