- Abstract
Although technically challenging, salvage radical prostatectomy (SRP) for radiorecurrent prostate cancer (PCA) is an effective option in carefully selected patients and offers the chance for cure and long-term survival. Sometimes local progression of PCA with subvesical obstruction following radiation therapy requires radical cystoprostatectomy or bladder-preserving urinary diversion. We present our experience with salvage radical prostatectomy in a group of 28 consecutive patients.
