Stereotactic body re-irradiation therapy for locally recurrent prostate cancer after external-beam radiation therapy: Initial report.

CONCLUSION: Stereotactic body re-irradiation therapy using CyberKnife(®) after failed external-beam radiation therapy showed favourable results in terms of in-field local and biochemical control. Toxicity was low and acceptable. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these results to select patient and to evaluate the introduction of androgen-deprivation therapy.
