Patient-reported prostate cancer treatment regret following primary partial gland cryoablation

CONCLUSIONS: The overwhelming majority of men do not express TRR following PPGCA. The loss of potency or development of erectile dysfunction predisposes to TRR. It is imperative to elucidate short-, intermediate- and long-term functional and oncological outcomes in order to define factors associated with TRR to improve counseling and reduce patient regret.PMID:38065805 | DOI:10.1016/j.urolonc.2023.10.003
