The Prostate is dedicated to original studies of this organ and the male accessory glands. It serves as an international medium for these studies presenting comprehensive coverage of clinical anatomic embryologic physiologic endocrinologic and biochemical studies as well as significant case descriptions. In keeping with the growth of research in this area we are increasing the scope of The Prostate by including review articles and editorials on appropriate topics and by accepting letters to the editor in areas of controversy.
