Long-Term Subjective Functional Outcomes of Prostate Cancer: Prostatectomy vs Radiation.

Background: Long-term subjective outcomes of prostate cancer are relatively unknown. The Oregon Urology Institute (OUI) has been collecting subjective functional outcome data to help determine the long-term subjective outcomes of prostatectomy vs radiation therapy.

Methods: Patients treated at OUI completed interval post-treatment questionnaires that assessed: urinary, bowel, sexual, and hormonal function, and overall treatment satisfaction.
