Abstract
What is the best treatment for localized, aggressive prostate cancer? One option is Cryo Surgery, a primary option that utilizes localized freezing to destroy diseased tissue. If you or your patients wish to consider Cryo Surgery, be sure to discuss this option with an urologist who performs Cryo Surgery of the prostate. Many urologists have not observed or been trained in the performance of this procedure. Prostate cancer allows you time to carefully consider all treatment options. Make an educated decision!
