Would this be a good candidate for focal surgery?

The OP's case may be a good one for focal therapy depending on lesion number, size, location and other factors. My team said I could be treated by focal therapy. But they wanted me to know that recurrence rates are higher than radiation or RP. That's where other factors besides Gleason grade and personal goals come into the decision making process.
