Family history of prostate cancer and prostate tumor aggressiveness in black and non-black men;results from an equal access biopsy study.

In this setting of equal access to care, positive FH of PC was associated with increased tumor aggressiveness in black men, but not non-black men undergoing prostate biopsy. Further research is required to tease apart the contribution of genetics from increased PC awareness potentially influencing screening and biopsy rates in men with FH.
