O estudo pretende identificar características demográficas e epidemiológicas em homens com câncer de próstata, atendidos no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu/UNESP, entre 01/01/2000 e 31/01/2003. Foram colhidos dados em 78 de 94 prontuários, observando-se escolaridade, uso de tabaco, estado civil, idade, diagnóstico e sintomatologia. Utilizou-se metodologia quantitativa associada à estatística descritiva. Foram encontrados 50% com 1º grau incompleto, 27,39% não tabagistas, 87% casados, 43% entre 64 e 73 anos. Observou-se que 27,58% foram diagnosticados em 2000, sendo 63,20% aposentados e 20,70% com sintoma de jato urinário fraco. Apenas 20% tinham realizado exames preventivos e, desses, 77,90% possuíam 1º grau incompleto. O estudo foi feito nesse hospital por ser considerado de referência terciária da Direção Regional de Saúde de Botucatu -DIR XI¹. da amostra, 80% procuraram o serviço apresentando sintomas, o que leva a crer que ainda haja falta de orientação da população quanto ao câncer de próstata, principalmente quanto à incidência e prevalência relacionadas à idade, como fator de risco. O estudo evidencia subsídios para um melhor direcionamento da assistência a esses pacientes, permitindo um diagnóstico precoce e conseqüente possibilidade de cura, além da melhora na qualidade de vida.

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the country. Due to this factor, the interest of showing what relationship exists between vasectomy surgery and the incidence of prostate carcinoma has started. Some epidemiological studies showed an increased risk of prostate cancer in vasectomized men (Emard et al., 2001). On the other hand other authors have argued that there is no correlation (Patel et al., 2005) and there are those who said that vasectomy is linked to reduced risk of prostate cancer (Ross, 1983). Faced with an analysis of published works, such discussion remains today. The vasectomy, or deferentectomia, is a contraceptive male method, which is the section of the vas deferens of man by preventing the sperm from being expelled along with the seminal fluid during ejaculation, and is one of the most simple, economical, uncomplicated post- operative. This study aims to evaluate the process of cell proliferation and to evaluate immuno-histochemically the expression of specific markers of PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen) and Ki-67, in the prostate of the gerbil after chemical induction by intraperitoneal injection of the carcinogen N-methyl -N-nitrosourea (MNU), because the regulation of the functional balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis is associated with hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma. The experimental procedure was performed at the Laboratory of the Department of Anatomy, along with collecting the data for later analysis

Radiotherapy is a branch of medical physics related to the treatment of malignant neoplasm, being an important instrument in the fight against cancer, when combined with the effort of a multidisciplinary team, composed of, physicians, physicists, nurses and technicians. Every year more than 3.5 million new cases of cancer are recorded in the world, being the prostate cancer responsible for approximately 25% of this amount (INCA and IARC, 2008). In this type of cancer, radiotherapy is a method indicated for treatement. The technological advance in this area over years has allowed a greater accuracy in the tumor location, more conformation of the radiation beam around the tumor, reducing the dose in healthy tissues and a consequent dose increase on treatment (Bedford et al., 1999). A radiotherapy planning, in which the physicist develops an important role, is composed of several steps, including choosing the best configuration of treatment beams. This choice has a close relationship with success of therapy and is critical to achieve the best distribution of dose inside the tumor and expose the least as possible the healthy tissue to radiation. In this work, two options for setting up camps in the first phase in a treatment of prostate cancer were simulated in computer planning: 4 fields orthogonal or “Box” with gantry angles in 00, 1800, 2700 e 90° and 4 fields angled or “X” (1350, 450, 3150 e 2250). The percentage of the rectal volume exposed to 40, 50, 60, 72 and 76 Gy should be limited to 60, 50, 25, 15 and 5% respectively (Greco et al., 2003). The femoral toxicity have limited dose by 70% of the total dose prescribed in a prostate treatment (Bedford et al., 1999). The planning of 27 patients with prostate adenocarcinoma submitted to 3D conformal radiotherapy were accompanied. As a result, it was assessed that the best TCP (tumor control probability)...
