It can be very high. Lower with lower Gleason, PSA, and clean margins. Put you results in the monogram (only valid with no ADT, radiation). As an example a Gleason 8, 20 PSA comes back as recurrence at 5 years 63%, 10 years 80% without clean margins and 46%, 66% with clean margins. At 4+3, 10 PSA clean margins it is still 30% 5 years and 50% 10 years. At 4+3, 10 PSA clean margins it is 13% 5 years and 25% 10 years.

@jim18 Hi, I have always heard that the reoccurrence rate between robotic surgery and radiations is about equal. From the Mayo clinic . “In one study, survival at 10 years was greater than 99% for men with lower risk disease who had either surgery or radiation. Even among men with higher risk prostate cancer, survival remained high, at about 96% for both treatments.”
