Salvage image guided radiation therapy to the prostate after cryotherapy failure
Purpose Cryotherapy is an option for the primary treatment of localized prostate cancer, along with radical prostatectomy, external beam radiation therapy, and brachytherapy. Although it is known that local recurrence can occur in >20% of patients treated with primary cryotherapy, unfortunately there is a paucity of data on later salvage treatments. The use of external beam radiation therapy is...
متن کاملSalvage cryotherapy for recurrent prostate cancer after radiation therapy: the Columbia experience.
OBJECTIVES Cryotherapy of the prostate represents a potential treatment for localized recurrent prostate cancer after radiation therapy. We report our experience and evaluate the predictive factors for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) recurrence. METHODS Between October 1994 and April 1999, 43 patients underwent salvage cryoablation. All patients had biopsy-proven recurrent prostate cancer wit...
متن کاملSalvage cryotherapy for recurrent prostate cancer after radiation failure: current status and future perspectives
10.2217/14750708.5.1.37 © 20 In the last decade, cryotherapy has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. With better understanding of the pathophysiology of cryogenic injury and the introduction of the gas-driven systems, the procedure has been optimized to improve patient survival and reduce complication. The results of sa...
متن کاملSalvage intensity-modulated radiation therapy for locally recurrent prostate cancer after cryotherapy.
BACKGROUND To summarize our results of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for prostate adenocarcinoma after cryotherapy failure. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients underwent IMRT with curative intent for biochemically recurrent prostate cancer after cryotherapy. Radiation was delivered to a minimum dose of 72 Gy (range, 72-81 Gy). Acute and late treatment-related gastrointestinal and ge...
متن کاملSalvage Cryotherapy for Radiation-Recurrent Prostate Cancer: Outcomes and Complications
Potentially curative salvage options for radio-recurrent prostate cancer include prostatectomy, brachytherapy, high-intensity focused ultrasound, and cryotherapy. Salvage cryoablation technology, surgical technique, oncologic outcomes, and complication rates have improved dramatically over the past few decades, shifting this treatment modality from investigational status to an established thera...
