Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer: International
Conference Summary for Patients and Support Group Leaders
Prostate cancer is the most common
form of non skin cancer in men in the United States, and
a leading cause of cancer mortality, accounting for more
than 29,000 deaths in 2005. However, the natural history
of this disease is remarkably variable and some men may
be very good candidates for a program of active surveillance
(“watchful waiting”)
rather than immediate treatment.
These presentation, especially
for patients, will summarize information on which men with
early stage prostate cancer might be the best candidates
for this approach and outcomes to date. This audio
recording includes information on the best candidates for Active Surveillance & Outcomes, Psychological and Social Considerations, The Prostate Cancer and the Role of Diet and a question and answer period
