Efficiency of application of radiation techniques to treat patients with localized prostate cancer in one hospita

Objectives. Analyzed short-and long-term results of radiation therapies (brachytherapy ¹²⁵I, conformal radiation therapy, stereotactic robotic radiotherapy) of patients with prostate cancer.

Materials and methods. In each treatment the patients were divided into 2 groups received the combined treatment in combination with neoadjuvant hormone therapy without its implementation. The immediate results of treatment were assessed according to the level of total prostatic specific antigen, prostate volume, residual urine, change according to the International Prostatic Symptom Score (IPSS).

Results. The dynamics of these indicators comparable in both groups, which is reflected in the regression of the primary tumor, as well as the quality of life of patients. Five-year overall survival and oncospecific survival in the group of patients after stereotactic radiotherapy is 100 %, the remaining groups – of more than 90–95 %.

Conclusion. The obtained results testify to the effectiveness of the proposed methods of treatment of patients with localized prostate cancer.
