“…After radiotherapy rectourethral fistula formation was seen in up to 10% of patients [22], but it did not lead to more incontinence in this series. This is in contrast with Pisters et al [30]who observed an incontinence rate of almost 80% after radiotherapy.…”

“…Pisters et al [30]reported on a series of patients treated with CSAP with local failure, 110 after radiotherapy alone and 40 after a combination of androgen deprivation and radiotherapy. In the 'radiotherapy alone’ group after 1–2 CSAP sessions a negative biopsy result could be obtained in 95% of patients compared with a 75% negative biopsy results in the 'radiotherapy and androgen deprivation’ group.…”

Salvage RP or RCx is a technically challenging but feasible surgical approach with curative intent for the treatment of locally recurrent PCA in well selected patients preventing significant local complications such as subvesical obstruction, ureteral obstruction, hematuria, and rectal infiltration. Surgery-associated morbidity and complications are low and not comparable to earlier series. The indication for salvage RP requires positive biopsy and negative imaging studies.

“…Reported postsalvage cryosurgery UI rates range from 0% to 83% 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67. Generally, men treated with cryotherapy report higher prevalence of urinary symptoms compared with RP in the short term, but the symptoms improve or disappear after ≥ 3 months 68, 69.…”

Integrative review on the non‐invasive management of lower urinary tract symptoms in men following treatments for pelvic malignancies

et al. 2015

SummaryAimTo develop a non‐invasive management strategy for men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after treatment for pelvic cancer, that is suitable for use in a primary healthcare context.MethodsPubMed literature searches of LUTS management in this patient group were carried out, together with obtaining a consensus of management strategies from a panel of authors for the management of LUTS from across the UK.ResultsData from 41 articles were investigated and collated. Clinical experience was sought from authors where there was no clinical evidence. The findings discussed in this paper confirm that LUTS after the cancer treatment can significantly impair men's quality of life. While many men recover from LUTS spontaneously over time, a significant proportion require long‐term management. Despite the prevalence of LUTS, there is a lack of consensus on best management. This article offers a comprehensive treatment algorithm to manage patients with LUTS following pelvic cancer treatment.ConclusionBased on published research literature and clinical experience, recommendations are proposed for the standardisation of management strategies employed for men with LUTS after the pelvic cancer treatment. In addition to implementing the algorithm, understanding the rationale for the type and timing of LUTS management strategies is crucial for clinicians and patients.

The Efficacy and Complications of Salvage Cryotherapy of the Prostate

Abstract: Salvage cryotherapy impacts local tumor control as evident by the high frequency of negative posttreatment biopsies. A double freeze-thaw cycle appears more effective than a single cycle. Like salvage prostatectomy, salvage cryotherapy causes significant morbidity.
