Salvage Therapy Options for Local Prostate Cancer Recurrence After Primary Radiotherapy: a Literature Review.
نویسندگان
چکیده
PURPOSE OF REVIEW While recurrence after primary treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) is not uncommon, there is currently no consensus on the most appropriate management after radiation treatment failure. This article seeks to explore the currently utilized modalities for salvage treatment for radiorecurrent PCa. We focused our review on the oncologic outcomes and reported toxicity rates in the latest studies examining salvage radical prostatectomy (SRP), salvage cryotherapy (SCT), salvage high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and re-irradiation. RECENT FINDINGS There does not appear to be any significant difference in overall survival for more invasive salvage radical prostatectomy compared to the minimally invasive salvage approaches. Additionally, there seems to be a trend towards lower morbidity rates associated with minimally invasive and focal salvage treatment. We are encouraged by the results presented in this review and find that there is clearly a role for emerging minimally invasive and focal therapies as durable options for salvage treatment in patients with radiorecurrent PCa.

متن کاملSalvage therapy of intraprostatic failure after radical external-beam radiotherapy for prostate cancer: a review.
Radical external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is a standard treatment for prostate cancer (PC) patients. Despite this, the rate of intraprostatic relapses after primary EBRT is still not negligible. There is no consensus on the most appropriate management of these patients after EBRT failure. Treatment strategies after PC relapse are strongly influenced by the effective site of the tumor recurrence...
متن کاملSalvage brachytherapy for locally recurrent prostate cancer after external beam radiotherapy
External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is a standard treatment for prostate cancer. Despite the development of novel radiotherapy techniques such as intensity-modulated conformal radiotherapy, the risk of local recurrence after EBRT has not been obviated. Various local treatment options (including salvage prostatectomy, brachytherapy, cryotherapy, and high-intensity focused ultrasound [HIFU]) have b...
متن کاملTherapy of Treatment Failure After Curative Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Objective: Recurrence rates of 40–60% after percutaneous radiotherapy or brachytherapy and 20–40% after prostatectomy are described. This review will discuss curative treatment options for salvage after primary therapy. Methods: Relevant information was identified through searches of published studies, abstracts from scientific meetings, and review articles. Results: Clinical experience in salv...

PURPOSE We analyzed all available studies assessing the management of node only recurrence after primary local treatment of prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We systematically reviewed the literature in January 2015 using the PubMed, Web of Sciences and Embase databases according to PRISMA guidelines. Studies exclusively reporting visceral or bone metastatic disease were excluded from an...
