TREATMENT FOR PROSTATE CANCER PRESERVES QUALITY OF LIFE
Prostate cancer treatments can alter the patient’s quality of life in terms of pelvic comfort, urinary incontinence, or erectile dysfunction . Today’s Urology is not only about curing or prolonging life: it also aims to reduce the comorbidities of the disease and the side effects of treatments to fight against possible sequelae.
By strongly decreasing the side effects associated with the treatment of localized prostate cancer (the two main ones being urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction ), non-invasive high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy preserves the patient’s quality of life.
HIFU treatment is also a perfect alternative between active surveillance, to avoid radical treatment of cancer by surgery or radiotherapy.
By effectively treating cancer in a minimally invasive way, which preserves the quality of life of patients, the psychological stress that active surveillance can represent for them is eliminated.
PLEASE, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THIS POINT!
- Patients who have not yet received treatment for cancer .
- Patients with localized prostate cancer (stage T1-T2).
- Prostate Specific Antigen less than 20 ng/ml.
- The desire to maintain the highest quality of life after treatment In patients in whom radiotherapy has failed.
