Radical prostecomy after partial HOLEP - is it possible?
I had a partial HOLEP after I was not able to urinate, and they found cancer - Gleason 3+4. An MRI showed that there was still cancer in my prostate. Everyone wants me to have radiation, but I would rather have another HOLEP operation and remove the rest of my prostate. My radiologist says that no surgeon would do this do to scar tissue. Is he right?
Hi
thanks for reaching out. I couldn't find any information on our site about this, but hoping members will join this conversation if they have experience with this. In the meantime, I would definitely talk to your surgeon and get another opinion. It is important to feel good about your decision. Please let us know what you decide. Jill (Team Member)
