Prospective study of cryotherapy for partial gland ablation of prostate cancer
Prof. Leonard Marks
Partial gland ablation (PGA) is a new option for treatment of prostate cancer. A prospective study at David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA evaluated cryotherapy for PGA in patients with clinically significant prostate cancer. Cryotherapy was safe and modestly effective. Urinary function was effected only slightly and sexual function moderately.
