Those with high levels of PSA in their blood are at increased risk for developing prostate cancer. Diagnosis requires a <a href="/wiki/Prostate_biopsy" title="Prostate biopsy">biopsy</a> of the prostate. If cancer is present, the pathologist assigns a <a href="/wiki/Gleason_score" class="mw-redirect" title="Gleason score">Gleason score</a>; a higher score represents a more dangerous tumor. Medical imaging is performed to look for cancer that has spread outside the prostate. Based on the Gleason score, PSA levels, and imaging results, a cancer case is assigned a <a href="/wiki/Cancer_staging" title="Cancer staging">stage</a> 1 to 4. A higher stage signifies a more advanced, more dangerous disease. </p><p>Most prostate tumors remain small and cause no health problems. These are managed with <a href="/wiki/Active_surveillance_of_prostate_cancer" title="Active surveillance of prostate cancer">active surveillance</a>, monitoring the tumor with regular tests to ensure it has not grown. Tumors more likely to be dangerous can be destroyed with <a href="/wiki/Radiation_therapy" title="Radiation therapy">radiation therapy</a> or surgically removed by <a href="/wiki/Radical_prostatectomy" class="mw-redirect" title="Radical prostatectomy">radical prostatectomy</a>. Those whose cancer spreads beyond the prostate are treated with <a href="/wiki/Hormone" title="Hormone">hormone</a> therapy which reduces levels of the <a href="/wiki/Androgen" title="Androgen">androgens</a> (male sex hormones) that prostate cells need to survive. Eventually cancer cells can grow resistant to this treatment.

There, tumors cause severe <a href="/wiki/Bone_pain" title="Bone pain">bone pain</a>, leg weakness or paralysis, and eventually death. Prostate cancer <a href="/wiki/Prognosis" title="Prognosis">prognosis</a> depends on how far the cancer has spread at diagnosis. Most men diagnosed have low-risk tumors confined to the prostate; 99% of them survive more than 10 years from their diagnoses. Tumors that have metastasized to distant body sites are most dangerous, with <a href="/wiki/Five-year_survival_rate" title="Five-year survival rate">five-year survival rates</a> of 30–40%. </p><p>The risk of developing prostate cancer increases with age; the average age of diagnosis is 67.
