Simple prostatectomy followed by radiation therapy for prostate cancer: a novel treatment pathway for men with marked prostatomegaly and prostate cancer: a series of cases
A subset of patients with clinically significant prostate cancer have marked prostatomegaly and LUTS. We report an alternative treatment approach for patients unwilling to undergo radical prostatectomy. We found robotic simple prostatectomy followed by definitive radiation to be feasible and safe.
