First seen Mar 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study looks at how many prostate cancer survivors experience faecal incontinence (bowel leakage) after a specific type of radiation therapy. Researchers will measure the severity of leakage and see if the radiation dose to the anal sphincter muscle is related to the problem. About 200 survivors who had this treatment will be followed to understand this side effect better.
