Has anyone used a radical cystoprostatectomy to attack the primary prostate cancer tumor?
In the language that most humans speak, a radical cysto ... y is the surgical removal of the bladder, the prostate, the adjacent lymph nodes, and the seminal vesicles. It is the traditional standard of care for bladder cancer that has penetrated the bladder wall and reached the muscle layer. I am considering it because I suspect I have neuroendocrine prostate cancer, therapies for which are only palliative, and their success is of short duration.
Good Evening Everyone
Sorry for the late reply - I've been watching football in Aldershot (don't ask about the result) and I am back home now!!.
Yes, it was the same poster 18 days ago and as Eddie says Alwayshope has put up a great reply. The only other suggestion I can make Seeker01 is to post your question in the Bladder Cancer Group - here's the link:
If that doesn't throw up any replies have you considered asking the question to Prostate Cancer UK?
I hope the above helps.
Best wishes - Brian.
