Abstract
Forty-eight cases of incidental carcinoma treated conservatively were reviewed. Patients with poorly differentiated, multiple foci or well differentiated, multiple foci had a poor prognosis, whereas those with well differentiated, few foci (1-3) had a good prognosis. Patients with multiple foci (poorly or well differentiated) should be treated aggressively, by radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy. Conservative treatment is recommended for patients with well differentiated, few foci.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
