Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A 56-year-old African American male with severe haemophilia A [baseline factor VIII (FVIII) activity <1%] and chronic hepatitis C virus infection started annual serial monitoring of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at age 40 because of a family history of prostate cancer (his father died from the disease at age 63). His most recent PSA level was 4.4 ng L (-1) ; previous values were <3 ng L(-1) . Digital rectal examination was unrevealing.
