2. Quality of Life and Functional Outcomes in Men with Localized Prostate Cancer
Sammanfattning : Quality-of-life and functional outcomes are important in the choice of treatment for men with localized prostate cancer. These issues were investigated in the present thesis. All living 400 men randomized to radical prostatectomy or watchful waiting from 1989 to 1999 in the Scandinavian Prostate Cancer Group Number 4 (SPCG-4) were included. LÄS MER
3. Adverse effects of curative treatment of prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Background Screening for prostate cancer is debated, there is conflicting data on the net benefit of screening. Men who consider screening need to be informed on the pros and cons.

4. Treatment of early prostate cancer - reducing side effects without jeopardizing cure
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis is to gain further knowledge of how surgical choices affect the outcome for patients undergoing radical prostatectomy for early prostate cancer including preoperative evaluation and long-term prognosis after surgery. Within the non-randomized Laparoscopic Prostatectomy Robot Open trial, comparing the outcomes between open and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, we evaluated the effect of preservation of the neurovascular bundles on postoperative incontinence (paper I), and recurrence of prostate cancer (paper II).

5. Outcomes after surgical treatment of localized prostate cancer with focus on urinary incontinence and short term complications
Sammanfattning : Background: Urinary incontinence is a significant long-term complication after radical prostatectomy. The aim was to evaluate clinically significant definitions of urinary incontinence and to investigate its potential predictors. LÄS MER
