Context The incidence of localised prostate cancer is increasing worldwide. In light of recent
evidence, current, radical, whole-gland treatments for organ-confined disease have being …

What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? The recent shift of pathological
stage migration towards earlier forms suggested great potential for the introduction of focal …

Purpose: To establish a consensus in relation to case selection, conduct of therapy, and
outcomes that are associated with focal therapy for men with localized prostate cancer …

Study Type–Diagnosis (exploratory cohort) Level of Evidence 2b OBJECTIVE To compare
the diagnostic properties of routine office‐based sextant and extended biopsies for unilateral …

The treatment paradigm for small-volume, low-grade unifocal or unilateral prostate cancer is
shifting from a radical, whole-gland approach toward organ-sparing, focal ablation. The …

Background Hemiablation is a less morbid treatment alternative for appropriately selected
patients with unilateral prostate cancer (PCa). However, to the authors' knowledge …

The role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in prostate cancer evaluation is controversial
and likely underestimated. Technological advances over the past 5 years have …

Background Significant cancer in contralateral sides of the prostate that was missed on
prostate biopsy (PBx) is a concern in hemiablative focal therapy (FT) of prostate cancer …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the complication rates and quality of life in patients eligible for focal
therapy who underwent template-assisted transperineal prostate biopsy (TTPB) …

Focal therapy of the prostate is defined as prostate gland ablation aiming at eradication of
