Abstract
Conclusions Black men were more likely to be obese and present with adverse preoperative clinical features at a younger age, and have a higher rate of biochemical progression. However, on multivariate analysis black race was not an independent predictor of adverse pathological outcome or biochemical recurrence. Further efforts are needed to detect prostate cancer earlier among black men.
