Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) caused a worldwide pandemic in over 100 years. The disease caused by this newly discovered virus was called Covid-19. In this study, we aimed to evaluate changing of PSA value in patients with Covid-19.
Patients with positive PCR test results were included in the study. The age of the patient
and urea, leukocyte, hemoglobin, platelet, urea, and creatinine values of the patients were
recorded. Urinalysis and urine culture were taken from all patients. Acute phase reactants
such as sedimentation, C-reaktif protein (CRP), ferritin, and fibrinogen were measured both
at the time the patients applied and three weeks after the patient recovered. PSA and free
PSA were also measured in the same way. Patients whose symptoms improved and the PCR test
result was negative were considered as recovered.
Other: PSA value
We measure PSA value during and after covid-19 infection
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male patients (>45 and <70 years of age) positive PCR test results were included in
the study
Exclusion Criteria:
- The patients <45 and >70 years of age who described lower urinary tract symptoms who
had urinary tract infection who a history of prostate biopsy and previous high level
of PSA who history of prostatitis were excluded.
