Partial prostatectomy shows promise for localized prostate cancer, balancing tumor control with function preservation. Further research is needed to confirm long-term efficacy and standardize patient selection.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Localized prostate cancer management seeks to balance oncological control with functional preservation (urinary and erectile).
  • Focal ablative therapies are emerging, but their long-term prognosis remains uncertain.
  • Partial prostatectomy is being explored as a primary treatment option, especially for low-to-intermediate-risk prostate cancer.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review the efficacy of partial prostatectomy as a primary treatment for localized prostate cancer.
  • To evaluate tumor control, continence, and erectile function outcomes following partial prostatectomy.
  • To identify optimal patient selection criteria and surgical techniques for partial prostatectomy.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive systematic review of existing studies on partial prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer.

  • Focus on patient selection, surgical techniques, and postoperative outcomes.
  • Inclusion of studies utilizing multiparametric MRI and targeted biopsies for candidate selection.

    • Main Results:

    • Partial prostatectomy demonstrates promising short-term outcomes in both tumor control and functional preservation.
    • Preoperative imaging and biopsy are valuable tools for selecting appropriate candidates.
    • Limited long-term data on cancer recurrence and heterogeneity in study protocols are key limitations.

    Conclusions:

    • Partial prostatectomy is a viable, minimally invasive treatment for selected localized prostate cancer patients.
    • Preoperative diagnostics are crucial for optimizing patient selection.
    • Standardized follow-up protocols and further research are necessary to establish long-term outcomes and refine its role in prostate cancer management.
