| Description: | Objective To determine the factor‐X activating procoagulant activity (FXAA) of prostatic tissue removed at transurethral resection in a specific chromogenic assay. Patients and methods FXAA was extracted from transurethrally resected prostatic tissue using a cryofragmentation technique. Tissue from 50 patients with prostate cancer was analysed and compared with that from 36 control patients with benign prostatic‐hypertrophy. Enzyme activities were assayed in a two stage chromogenic assay and correlated with conventional markers of tumour aggressiveness. Results FXAA was found to be significantly lower (P |
