Prostate Cancer Treatments Options
Prostate cancer treatment ranges from minimally-invasive (brachytherapy) to major surgery (radical prostatectomy.)
In some cases, “watchful waiting” (keeping the cancer under close observation for signs of progression) may be best.
With the exception of some minimally invasive treatments, prostate cancer treatment is usually a "one shot" therapy. This means that a doctor can administer the prostate cancer treatment only once to stop or slow the cancer.
The "Best" Prostate Cancer Treatment
The best prostate cancer treatment depends upon a man's age and general health, the stage of his prostate cancer and his personal decision. |
