Extractions: Cryosurgery in the Treatment of Prostate Cancer Duke K. Bahn, M.D. Department of Radiology, Crittenton Hospital, Rochester, MI Editors Note:I feel it is appropriate to state that Dr Bahn is both a colleague and professional associate of mine. Introducton Results : Patients with prostate cancer were divided into three groups. The first group had cancer confined to the prostate. These patients are usually a candidate for radical surgery. Up to three years follow up after cryosurgery showed 10 % positive biopsy rate (failure) compared to 40 - 50 % positive surgical margin rate (eventual failure) with radical prostatectomy and 35 - 90 % positive biopsy rate after radiation therapy (1,2,3,4,5). The second group were patients whose cancer had already spread outside of the prostate capsule, but did not have distant metastasis (non-confined, stage C disease ). These patients usually are not recommeded for radical surgery. In general they have had poor out-comes with traditional treatments. In this group, the reported failure rate after cryosurgery was 26 % in this series. The third group were patients who had already failed radiation therapy prior to having cryosurgery. Our data showed a 25 % failure rate in this category.
