Abstract

Prostate cancer (PC) prophylactic is one of the most challenging tasks of modern urology. One of the most often prescribed drugs are adrenoblockers (AB). Recent studies demonstrated possible their influence on diagnostic and clinical course of PC. Further appropriate planned studies needed to receive proved results.
