PSA is a tumor marker, and changes in PSA levels are associated with prostate cancer. For prostate cancer patients, changes in PSA levels can be used to help assess treatment effectiveness. If PSA levels remain within the normal range for one year after surgery, it indicates that the surgical procedure has effectively cleared tumor tissue and there is no sign of recurrence in a short period of time. This is a positive sign. However, even if the index is normal, it cannot completely rule out the possibility of recurrence of the disease, so it cannot be said that prostate cancer has been completely cured.
