I have localized prostate cancer, what are my options? Can I be cured?

It is normal to be frightened, but we have many options for a cure. Localized prostate cancer refers to cancer that is confined to the prostate gland only, with no evidence of spread to other parts of the body. This stage offers several treatment options with a high likelihood of cure.

Depending on the characteristics of the tumor, we can consider focal treatment, prostatectomy or radiotherapy. It is important to carefully weigh the pros and cons of each of the treatments and to perform a personalized therapy. Most men with early diagnosis and adequate treatment can expect a complete cure.
