Active surveillance in prostate cancer
- Urologická klinika LF UP a FN, Olomouc
Radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy are main therapeutic options for patients with localized prostate cancer. Both modalities are associated with significant risk of complications and socio-economic consequences. In low risk prostate cancer patients, active surveillance represents an alternative therapeutic approach. In well selected patients, active surveillance can delay active treatment. The aim of this review is to objectively present data on inclusion criteria and summarize results of comparative studies in active surveillance.
Keywords: prostate cancer, active surveillance, upgrading, upstaging, Gleason score, PSA
