Abstract | The paper deals with 47 patients with prostatic carcinoma, diagnosed at the Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Ljubljana in 1990. Five years after treatment, there were 15 survivors (32%). A five-year survival by the histological pattern of the lesion was 87% in well differentiated carcinoma, 25% in moderately differentiated carcinoma and 16% in poorly differentiated neoplasms. Of the 47 patients with the diagnosis of prostatic cancer established in 1990, 33 had advanced-stage cancer with metastasis. All patients received hormonal therapy; 28 of them had additional bilateral orchidectomy. A 5-year survival was 18% (6 patients). | |
