LDR brachytherapy has shown to have the best rates of erectile function preservation.
The choice between LDR prostate brachytherapy and surgery depends on various factors, including the patient’s health, the stage of the cancer, and individual preferences. Each option has its own advantages and disadvantages.
LDR prostate brachytherapy may be preferred over surgery because it is:
Minimally Invasive Procedure: LDR brachytherapy is a minimally invasive procedure, involving the placement of radioactive seeds directly into the prostate gland, targeting the cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues.
Shorter Recovery Time: Patients undergoing LDR brachytherapy may experience a quicker recovery time compared to those undergoing surgery. In fact, most men can resume normal activity the following day.
Lower Risk of Certain Side Effects: LDR brachytherapy is associated with a lower risk of certain side effects, including blood loss, infection and urinary incontinence.
Outpatient Procedure: LDR brachytherapy is performed on an outpatient basis—patients go home on the same day as the procedure. Surgery, especially radical prostatectomy, typically requires a hospital stay.
Potential for Preserving Sexual Function: LDR brachytherapy may have a lower risk of causing erectile dysfunction compared to surgery, although individual experiences can vary.
Our mission is to combine cutting-edge technology, business acumen, compassionate care and clinical expertise to drive radical change in the treatment of prostate cancer through low dose rate prostate brachytherapy.
