The treatment options for prostate cancer typically entail active surveillance, surgery, radiation, or a combination of the above. Disease recurrence remains a concern, with a wide range of recurrence rates having been reported in the literature. In the setting of recurrence, the salvage treatment options include salvage prostatectomy, salvage high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), salvage brachytherapy, and salvage cryoablation. In this review, we analyze the currently available data related to salvage cryoablation for recurrent prostate cancer following radiation.
前列腺癌的治疗方案通常包括主动监测、手术、放疗或上述方法的组合。疾病复发仍然是一个值得关注的问题,文献中报道的复发率范围广泛。在复发情况下,挽救性治疗方案包括挽救性前列腺切除术、挽救性高强度聚焦超声(HIFU)、立体定向体部放疗(SBRT)、挽救性近距离放疗以及挽救性冷冻消融术。在本综述中,我们分析了目前关于放疗后复发前列腺癌挽救性冷冻消融术的相关数据。
