CONCISE Prostate Cancer Summary Notes (KAT7, Haem & Oncology Block)

Description

These notes contain thorough yet concise summaries, in tabulated format, of all prostate cancer content for the haematology & oncology block, in preparation for KAT7. These notes also includes detailed history-taking notes for prostate cancer (useful for MMCA2) and details on spinal cord compression (oncological emergency relevant to prostate cancer). The most useful parts of this document are the management section, with details of treatments by method and by stage, and molecular pathways/pathophysiology of prostate cancer. On the exam I received 88%, with full marks for prostate oncology and surgery sections. The sources for this info include: - SMP: online videos, lectures, clinical tutes, SCORPIOs, CBLs and workshops. - AMBOSS: prostate cancer - Wiki Cancer Oncology for medical students - Up To Date Prostate cancer management Unfortunately no images/diagrams could be included due to copyright rules, but I have included sources or where to find images where appropriate!
