Patterns of Presentation of Prostate Cancer in Patients of Non‐English‐Speaking Background at an Australian Institution—A 6‐Year Retrospective Study
NESB men are more likely to be diagnosed with higher-grade prostate cancer on biopsy compared with their English-speaking counterparts due to delayed presentation. Language is not seen as a barrier to receiving appropriate treatment for their prostate cancer. Further studies with more granular data pertaining to cancer staging, sequence of treatments and oncological outcomes are required to ascertain the effectiveness of care delivery towards NESB patients living with prostate cancer.
