Journal ArticleDOI
Urinary and sexual function after radical prostatectomy for clinically localized prostate cancer : The Prostate Cancer Outcomes Study
Janet L. Stanford,Janet L. Stanford,Ziding Feng,Ann S. Hamilton,Frank D. Gilliland,Frank D. Gilliland,Robert A. Stephenson,J. William Eley,Peter C. Albertsen,Linda C. Harlan,Arnold L. Potosky +10 more
TL;DR: This study suggests that radical prostatectomy is associated with significant erectile dysfunction and some decline in urinary function, and these results may be particularly helpful to community-based physicians and their patients with prostate cancer who face difficult treatment decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
20-year outcomes following conservative management of clinically localized prostate cancer.
TL;DR: The annual mortality rate from prostate cancer appears to remain stable after 15 years from diagnosis, which does not support aggressive treatment for localized low-grade prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of finasteride on the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for surgical treatment among men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
John D. McConnell,Reginald C. Bruskewitz,Patrick C. Walsh,Gerald L. Andriole,Michael M. Lieber,H.L. Holtgrewe,Peter C. Albertsen,Claus G. Roehrborn,J.C. Nickel,Daniel Z. Wang,Alice Taylor,Joanne Waldstreicher +11 more
TL;DR: Among men with symptoms of urinary obstruction and prostatic enlargement, treatment with finasteride for four years reduces symptoms and prostate volume, increases the urinary flow rate, and reduces the probability of surgery and acute urinary retention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early detection of prostate cancer: AUA Guideline
H. Ballentine Carter,Peter C. Albertsen,Michael J. Barry,Ruth B. Etzioni,Stephen J. Freedland,Kirsten L. Greene,Lars Holmberg,Philip W. Kantoff,Badrinath R. Konety,Mohammad Hassan Murad,David F. Penson,Anthony L. Zietman +11 more
TL;DR: A systematic review was conducted and summarized evidence derived from over 300 studies that addressed the predefined outcomes of interest (prostate cancer incidence/mortality, quality of life, diagnostic accuracy and harms of testing).
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Functional Outcomes after Treatment for Localized Prostate Cancer
Matthew J. Resnick,Tatsuki Koyama,Kang-Hsien Fan,Peter C. Albertsen,Michael Goodman,Ann S. Hamilton,Richard M. Hoffman,Arnold L. Potosky,Janet L. Stanford,Antoinette M. Stroup,R. Lawrence Van Horn,David F. Penson +11 more
TL;DR: Men treated for localized prostate cancer commonly had declines in all functional domains during 15 years of follow-up, and no significant relative differences in disease-specific functional outcomes were observed among men undergoing prostatectomy or radiotherapy.
