Have Stage 4A Ductal Prostate Cancer that spread to the pelvic area. While it had spread I had surgery. This was based on recent studies that shown long term advantages for removing the primary source of cancer. This was followed by Lupron and Zytiga with prednisone. Finally 38 rounds of radiation. That was 2 1/2 years ago. So far so good. Note, because it is Ductal it does not PSA. As a result I get scans every six months .

This video is 10 years s old in 2024. Have treatment regimens not evolved since 2014?

[@anthonyolding8444]

Please don’t take all of this in… Things have moved on since this was filmed… Treatments have changed significantly.. God Bless x

[@Sophos1964]

Are there any more recent sites covering this issue?

[@princejames287]

Why is not removing the prostate even mentioned as an option? Because i seen other videos where they remove the prostate immediately and they seem fine. Is stage 4 prostate cancer not allowed to remove the prostate?

[@durv13]

if you have stage 4 its gone beyond the prostate . so its advanced cancer . early diagnoses when it is only in the prostate , you can get it removed and hopefully remove the cancer , but once its gone beyond the prostate it could be anywhere , lungs stomack . kidneys , bones , anywhere . then its upto you how you want the treatment .

[@Midnitexowboy]

Because once it's metastasized you cannot remove it because it has already spread

[@kendallchambers8165]

I have stage 4 cancer that outside of the prostate, localized between my pelvic but hasn't spread to any other organs. Did mri and pet scan. Currently on adt and scheduled for radiation in few months.

[@durv13]
