In the U.S., prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and is the second leading cause of cancer death in men (the first beinglung cancer). One man in 7 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. In many cases it can be a slow moving disease and does not re...
Patients affected by prostate cancer can have localized or advanced disease. There are conventional approaches that have been used as a reference in localized cancer, such as active surveillance, surgery, or radiotherapy. However, the adverse effects might vary and, sometimes, they can be permanent...

proctitis [146]. Radical prostatectomy remains the first treatment option for localized PC and reduces the risk of mortality. It provides better survival chances than radiotherapy in patients with a primary tumor [147]. Major prostatectomies include open prostatectomy, laparoscopic prostatectomy, and ...
74 Hypoxia in a tumor is measured by HIF regulated genes or by using the pimonidazole dye, which, when injected intravenously and studied using robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, could characterize the stage of prostate cancer and report progression based on the Gleason score.73 The ...
Prostate cancer early detection campaigns have led to the diagnosis of a greater number of patients with organ-confined disease candidates for intention-to-cure treatment. Radical prostatectomy is one of these treatments; despite the technical advances with the development of lapar...

(n = 1223) consisted of patients who underwent open or laparoscopic RP and subsequently received PSMA-PET/CT-based sRT for a PSA persistence or recurrence (PSA after prostatectomy ≥ 0.1 ng/ml for both). To create the subgroup for this analysis, patients who had PSA > 0.2 ...
Treatment options for moderate to severe LUTS refractory to lifestyle modifications or medical management encompass surgical procedures or minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs). Surgical approaches interventions generally entail procedures such as open or laparoscopic prostatectomy, laser ablation, robotic...
