Abstract

The article presents our own data on the results of anthropometry in 42 patients with prostate cancer, the average age is 69.3 ± 2.6 years. The most common somatotype is the gynaecomorphics. However, among the male population, mesomorphs predominate. Excess nutrition and obesity do not affect the risk of developing prostate cancer.
