Prostate Cancer, Farming and Other Risk Factors: A Mini Review

Sharma M, Lawson J, Karunanayake C, Dosman JA and Punam P

Prostate cancer is the fourth most common cancer and is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer among men. Studies have suggested that an increased risk of prostate cancer among men may be associated with age, race/ ethnicity and family history of cancer. The etiology of prostate cancer is not precisely known with respect to other putative risk factors such as farming, exposure to pesticides and lifestyle factors. Therefore, the purpose of this paper was to review the published literature to identify some of the potential risk factors of prostate cancer.
