PROSTATE CANCER TREATMENT
Radical Prostatectomy: Involves removal of the prostate along with the seminal vesicle and Lymph nodes. Active Surveillence is a good option if the patient is old or has serious health problems or the cancer is slow growing. Hormonal Treatment involves Surgical Bilateral Orchiechtomy (testes removal) or monthly , 3 monthly or 6 monthly depot injections to suppress the formation of Testosterone which is formed in the testes. Normally these procedures are accompanied with oral tablets also. Hormonal treatment is a treatment option for locally advanced prostate cancers and advanced cancers with lymphnode or distant metastasis ( bone, liver, lungs or brain). External Radiotherapy for localized prostate cancers or for the metastasis is another option for the patients not keen on surgery or for pain management in advanced metastasized cancers.
