FACTORS AFFECTING BIOCHEMICAL RECURRENCE TIME IN PROSTATE CANCER PATIENTS: A SINGLE CENTER ANALYSIS

ABSTRACT Objective: In this study, patients who underwent salvage Radiotherapy (RT) after biochemical recurrence (BCR) were evaluated retrospectively. The aim of study was to evaluate the factors affecting time and RT radical prostatectomy. Materials Methods: XXX Hospital, with prostate cancer received between 01.01.2011 01.01.2018 analyzed Patients had undergone prostatectomy for adenocarcinoma, PSA (Prostate-specific antigen) recurrence, included. post-surgery hormone therapy, definitive or palliative RT, excluded.
