Abstract
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer among elderly males in the countries of North America and Europe. The mean age of patients with PC is 72–74 years old. A decision on a treatment option for elderly patients must be based on their somatic status and desire. Today radical operations for locally advanced PC are most commonly performed in older age groups (over 70 years). This is associated with the improvement of both medical equipment and surgical techniques. The patients’ good surgery tolerability is combined with satisfactory oncological results. However, because of age, the regenerative capacities of the patients in this group are diminished and postoperative restorative processes are slower and more difficult. Quality of life was assessed in the patients aged over 70 years who had undergone radical surgery in our clinic for PC in the past 2 years.
