According to Zero and NIH

Overall, studies show that about 20–40% of men will have a recurrence at some point after surgery. For example, one large study found that 27% developed biochemical recurrence (a rise in PSA) after prostatectomy, with 5- and 10-year recurrence rates of 21% and 29%, respectively. Long-term, the risk of recurrence can reach up to 32–40% over 15–20 years

Thanks Jeff - did they say for what gleason ?

Do you have stats for RT ?

I mean, for us RP is a must, but for the sake of other members here it would be nice to have some links for RT and RP and possibly done in more recent years and for the same gleason score.

Thanks in advance 🙂
