In the case report, we present a case of a 54 years old man with proven low grade prostate cancer who opted for an active monitoring - active surveillance. We describe the development of the disease in 18 monts with progression - carcinoma transfer to a higher degree.
The patient is monitored according to the recommended schedule for active monitoring to control the levels of PSA, clinical endorectal digital examination and MRI. We present a process dissemination along the peripheral zone with the possible effect of repeated biopsies on the process dissemination.
Marginally, we discuss the issue of active surveillance and the ability of MR to detect cancer progression.

Keywords: prostate cancer, active monitoring, magnetic resonance imaging, rebiopsy
