New surgery aims to spare men from common side effects of prostate cancer treatment

NCT ID NCT07348367

Summary

This study compares two surgical methods for treating low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The standard surgery (radical prostatectomy) removes the whole prostate but often causes erectile dysfunction and incontinence. The new method (precision prostatectomy) aims to remove most of the prostate while sparing key nerves and structures to preserve sexual and urinary function, hoping to offer similar cancer control with fewer side effects. The trial will measure patients' quality of life and cancer outcomes one year after surgery.
