Gleason score (GS) is one of the stronger prognostic factors and is integral to the management of prostate carcinoma. Subsequent modifications, recommended by the International Society of Urological Pathology in 2005 and 2014, enabled accurate prediction of prognosis. The present study investigated GS variation trend of patients with prostate carcinoma from 1996 to 2019 and offered an overview of GS changes with age, specimen type, histopathological type and serum prostate specific antigen (PSA).
