High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a treatment option for low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer and more recently has been used as salvage therapy after failed radiation therapy. We present a case of local recurrence with biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy and salvage external beam radiation therapy with salvage HIFU without biochemical recurrence at 20 months.
高强度聚焦超声(HIFU)是低危和中危前列腺癌的一种治疗选择,最近已被用作放射治疗失败后的挽救性治疗。我们报告一例病例,该患者在根治性前列腺切除术后出现局部复发并伴有生化失败,接受挽救性外照射放疗及挽救性HIFU治疗后,20个月时未出现生化复发。
