The data clearly shows that in well-selected patients that Prostate Seed Implantation (PSI) is an ideal treatment option that maximizes cure rates while limiting side effects. ...
We used clinical and quality-of-life data previously collected at the time of diagnosis (i.e., baseline) and at the 2-year follow-up and data newly collected at 5 years after diagnosis to compare urinary, bowel, and sexual function and to examine temporal changes in those functions. Odds...
