Prostatic carcinoma is a fairly common tumour and its diagnosis should always have a histological basis. Staging of the tumour by the TNM system permits a more rational approach to the choice of therapy-radical prostatectomy, radiotherapy and/or hormonal manipulation. To date there is no hormonal therapy convincingly superior to the use of oestrogen or the undertaking of bilateral orchidectomy. Chemotherapy has so far been disappointing.
