Approach To Treatment of Prostate Cancer:
A Multidisciplinary & Individualized Approach
Treatment Options for Prostate Cancer• Active Surveillance
• Radiation Therapy– External Beam– Brachytherapy aka
“seeds”– HDR Therapy– Proton Therapy
• Hormonal Therapy
• Chemotherapy
• Surgery– Robotics– Laparoscopic– Traditional Open
• Retropubic• Perineal
– Cryosurgery– HIFU
“One Size Does NOT Fit All”
• Age• Gleason Grade• Stage• Co-Morbidities• Individual Characteristics
What does a positive biopsy mean?
Gleason Grade
Gleason 6 Gleason 10
LOW GRADE HIGH GRADE

Staging
• Clinical:– DRE– CT Scan– Bone Scan– MRI
• Pathological:– Margins– Lymph nodes– Extracapsular Extension– Seminal Vesical Invasion
STAGE SUB-STAGE DEFINITION T1 Clinically unapparent tumor, not detected by DRE nor visible by imaging T1a Incidental histologic finding; <5% of tissue resected during TURP T1b Incidental histologic finding; >5% of tissue resected during TURP T1c Tumor identified by needle biopsy due to elevated PSA T2 Confined within the prostate (detectable by DRE, not visible on TRUS) T2a Tumor involves half of the lobe or less T2b Tumor involves more than one half of one lobe but not both lobes T2c Tumor involves both lobes T3 Tumor extends through the prostate capsule but has not spread to other organs T3a Unilateral extracapsular extension T3b Bilateral extracapsular extension T3c Tumor invades seminal vesicle(s) T4 Tumor is fixed or invades adjacent structures other than seminal vesicles T4a Tumor invades bladder neck and/or external sphincter and/or rectum T4b Tumor invades levator muscles and/or is fixed to pelvic wall
STAGE SUB-STAGE DEFINITION Node (N) Regional lymph nodes N0 No lymph nodes metastasis N1 Metastasis in single lymph node <2 cm in greatest dimension N2 Metastasis in single lymph node >2cm but <5 cm in greatest dimension, or multiple lymph nodes, none >5 cm N3 Metastasis in lymph node >5 cm in greatest dimension
STAGE SUB-STAGE DEFINITION Metastasis Systemic spread M0 No distant metastasis M1a Non-regional lymph node metastasis M1b Bone metastasis
a) Axial skeleton only b) Extending to peripheral skeleton also
M1c Metastasis at other sites
Robotic Surgery• Decreased Pain
• Shorter Hospital Stay
• Decreased Blood Loss
• Quicker Recovery
• Improved Quality of Life after Surgery

Do Advanced Tools result in Better Outcomes ?
Vision and Control
How do attributes of robotic surgical systems translate into outcomes?
• Operative parameters• Oncologic parameters• Quality of life parameters
• Potency & continence
Urinary Continence
• Joseph et al. 2006• N=325• Mean age: 60• Method of Assessment: Questionairre• Definition used: No pad• Time of assessment: 6 mos• Continence Rate: 96%

How do I choose the best surgeon?
What questions should I ask?
• Training?• Fellowship?• Experience?• How many cases have you done?• Reputation?
• Having a robot and knowing how to do robotic surgery are very different things?
