This study’s aim was to describe the social and clinical characteristics of patients diagnosed with prostate cancer, cared for by a university hospital in the interior of Sao Paulo, Brazil. This descriptive, retrospective study included a search for the characteristics of patients cared for in this hospital between 2001 and 2013. Data were tabulated and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The primary diagnosis of 1,641 out of the 2,620 patients included in the study was prostate cancer; patients were 73 years old on average; most were married, Caucasian, had completed middle school and were retired. The procedures included prostatectomy, transurethral resection, hormone therapy, lymphadenectomy, orchiectomy and chemotherapy. Studies addressing the difficulties and needs concerning treatment and care delivery faced by men affected by PC are needed, as well as studies aiming to identify in greater details the social characteristics of patients.
