This cross sectional study was conducted in Khartoum state during period of May to July among Sudanese patients with prostate cancer. This study aimed to assess serum lipid profile Cholesterol, triglycerides, High density lipoprotein, Low density lipoprotein among patients with prostate cancer. The study was involved hundred participant fifty percent were prostatic cancer patient and the rest were health individual as control group. Serum lipid profile was analyzed in each participant by spectrophotometric method using enzymatic reaction. The result of this study showed that the level of serum Cholesterol, triglyceride and Low density lipoprotein were higher in patients when we compared with healthy individual. Also in this study High density lipoprotein was lower in patients when we compared with health individual.This study concludes that there is significant elevation of serum lipid level profile among prostate cancer patient and there was significant difference between serum lipid profile level of patient and control. This study concludes that there is association between elevation of lipid profile and prostate cancer.
