Node Positive Prostate Cancer – Treatment and Survival

  • Summary

  • Overall survival and cancer-specific survival for those with node-positive prostate cancer treated with surgery lived longer than those who elected radiation treatment. 

    Men diagnosed with node positive prostate cancer need to decide if they want to include a targeted treatment to their prostate gland along with a systemic treatment like hormonal therapy. 

    Most men who elect to include a targeted therapy will choose between either surgery or radiation.  A retrospective observational study concluded that men who did elect to use surgery as opposed to radiation lived longe.
