Abstract
If, within the framework of screening examinations for the early detection of cancer of the prostate, the patient wishes a PSA test, the physician should accommodate him, but only after providing comprehensive information about the possible consequences and complications. If a certain threshold value is exceeded, a punch biopsy of the prostate is recommended. This procedure must be performed in accordance with accepted standards to enable, within the diagnostic chain, the reliable detection of a carcinoma of the prostate
