Abstract
An objective comparison is made of patients with stage C carcinoma of the prostate treated with radical prostatectomy vs. more conservative measures. Morbidity from local manifestations of the tumor left in situ was markedly increased, whereas those patients afforded an extirpative operation had a much improved quality of life.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
