To determine the effect of an indwelling catheter on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. PSA is an organ (prostate)-specific marker, and its level can be elevated in various pathologies as well as following urologic manipulations. An elevated marker may indicate the presence of prostate cancer. In the presence of an indwelling catheter, our inability to decide whether an elevated PSA value represents genuine pathology or is related to the catheter itself is often of great clinical importance.
