Men’s Health
• Health promotion is foundation of family medicine • Men are affected by: – Unique and multidisciplinary aspects of issues – Specific illnesses and diseases that impact life expectancy • Life expectancy of men -76 • Average – men die 5 years earlier then women • Urologic issues – – cause significant apprehension – leading reason men seek medical care
Men’s Health
• Men – – Nearly 1/3 do not have primary care physician – Avoid seeking medical care for cultural and social reasons – Challenging to persuade men to participate in preventive medicine • Men’s Health = proactive prevention • Men’s Disease = reactive management • June = Men’s Health Month

3 8/13/2018
Question 1

Testicular Cancer Serum Tumor Markers
AFP β-HCG LDH Seminoma - +/-
Non-Seminoma +/-
6 8/13/2018
Testicular Cancer
• Screening – Do Not Screen – Grade D (USPSTF) • Outlook – – one of the most curable solid neoplasms – 5 year survival rate > 95% – 8850 annual cases – 400 die of disease – Incidence increasing • Osteopathic Considerations – Sympathetic Innervation = T10-11
Question 1

8 8/13/2018
Prostate Cancer
• 2nd most common cancer in men worldwide • 1 in 6 lifetime risk in US men • Age < 40 rare • Age > 40 incidence rises rapidly • Risk factors – Increasing AGE * – African-American ethnicity – Family hx – Limited factors – diet, hormones, obesity
Prostate Cancer
• Screening – informed decision making (ACS, AUA, USPSTF) – Men 55-69 informed decision making (USPSTF –updated in 2017; previously grade D all men) – Men ≥ 70 - do not screen – Grade D (USPSTF) • Screening discussions – – Age 40-45 high risk males – Age 50 average risk males • PSA – controversial • DRE – not recommended • Dx – histology (> 95% AdenoCa) via biopsy after PSA↑
9 8/13/2018
Prostate Cancer
• Tx considerations – – TMN staging – (Mets – seminal vesicles, lymph nodes, bladder, bones) – Gleason score/grade group – Serum PSA level – Estimated outcome with each tx group – Potential complications with each tx approach – Patient’s general medical condition, age, comorbidity, personal preference
Prostate Cancer - Tx
• Risk stratified groups – AUA, NCCN guidelines – Very low risk - active surveillance (AS), low risk options – Low risk – AS, radiation therapy (RT), radical prostatectomy (RP) – Intermediate risk – RT, RP, +/- androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) – High risk – RT, RP + node dissection, adjuvant RT and/or ADT – Very high risk – RT + ADT, RP + node dissection – Clinical lymph node involvement – RT + ADT – Disseminated metastases – ADT + orchiectomy +/- chemotx • Osteopathic Considerations – prostate T10-L2; options vary per risk group; may be aimed at symptoms; contraindicated/caution with mets

12 8/13/2018
BPH
• Benign prostatic hyperplasia = histologic dx • Benign prostatic hypertrophy = enlargement • Clinical manifestations = patient complaint • Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) from BPH – Storage symptoms – increased daytime frequency, nocturia, urgency, urinary incontinence – Voiding symptoms – slow, splitting, spraying, or intermittent urinary stream; hesitancy, straining to void, terminal dribbling – Irritative symptoms – frequency and urgency
BPH • Dx = Presumptive Dx • Based on LUTS – storage, voiding, and/or irritative symptoms and diffusely enlarged firm, nontender prostate on exam • Must R/O other potential causes – UTI, prostatitis, stricture, cancers, stones, phimosis, paraphimosis (consider UA, PSA, Creatinine)
PE LUTS BPH findings
13 8/13/2018
BPH
• LUTS – – Ø correlation with prostate size or physiologic abnormalities – Vary over time – Prevalence increases with age – AUA/IPSS scale – use to quantify and monitor symptom progression over time

17 8/13/2018
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)
• Focal dilation 50% greater than normal diameter of aorta • Infrarenal aorta ≥ 3 cm • Men – diameter alone defines AAA and predicts clinical events (diameter less predictive of clinical events in women) • 4-8% of men > 50 (M>F) • Age-related increase (M>F) • 7000 deaths in US annually from ruptured AAA
AAA Increased Risk – Older Age – Male gender – Cigarette smoking – Caucasian race – Atherosclerosis Decreased Risk – HTN – Female gender – Family hx of AAA – Non-Caucasian race – Other large artery – Diabetes aneurysms
18 8/13/2018
AAA
• Dx – imaging studies obtained in patient based on risk factors or exam of AAA ≥ 3 cm • Ultrasound – – Inexpensive; widely available – sensitivity and specificity ~ 100% for AAA > 3cm – Ideal for screening – evidence supports cost effectiveness
AAA Screening
• USPSTF – Grade B – Men 65-75 who have ever smoked (100 lifetime cigarettes) - one time screening abdominal ultrasound (women – insufficient evidence to screen) • USPSTF – Grade C – Men 65-75 who have never smoked – selective screening based on medical hx, family hx, other risk factors and personal values (women – no screening) – Men > 75 – unlikely to benefit from screening – No repeat of negative tests
19 8/13/2018
AAA Tx
• Prevent rupture due to mortality risk • Balance comorbidity of repair with rupture risk • Watchful waiting for small aneurysm < 5.5 cm – 3-4 cm – q12 month ultrasound – 4-4.5 cm – q 6 month ultrasound – > 4.5 cm – refer to vascular surgeon • Medical tx aimed at reducing rate of expansion • Smoking cessation ONLY tx proven effective for reducing rate of enlargement • Repair of AAA > 5.5cm
AAA
• Outlook – AAA mortality has ↓50% since the 1990’s – possibly due to ↓ smoking, ↑ awareness, ↑ screening, ↑ endovascular repair
• Osteopathic considerations – – Sympathetics depend on level of AAA – Infrarenal T9-L2 – Caution with rotary techniques – Caution with abdominal tx
