Tumor marker TPSA is serum total prostate-specific antigen, which can check prostate diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer, etc. It is recommended to consult a specialist.
The normal value of serum total prostate specific antigen is <4ug/L, which can be significantly elevated in the case of prostate cancer, and can be significantly decreased after surgical resection. If there is no significant decrease or re-emergence of elevation, it is often suggestive of tumor recurrence or metastasis.
Certain benign prostate diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostatitis, can also have mild elevation, and need to perform free prostate-specific antigen to clarify the benign or malignant nature.
In addition, certain tests can also cause elevation of serum total prostate-specific antigen, such as anal diagnosis, cystoscopy, and prostate massage.
Abnormalities in serum total prostate specific antigen require prompt diagnosis and treatment.
