Multiple definitions of biochemical recurrence for prostate cancer exist after radical prostatectomy, and variation continues in outcome reporting secondary treatment initiation. We reviewed long-term prostatectomy outcomes to assess the most appropriate specific antigen cut point that predicts future disease progression.We identified 13,512 patients with cT1-2N0M0 who underwent between 1987 2010. Single points 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 0.5 ng/ml or greater, as well confirmatory value 0.2 greater...

ABSTRACT Background Previous studies of penile traction therapy (PTT) devices have demonstrated limited/no efficacy when combined with intralesional therapies for Peyronie’s disease (PD). Recently, randomized data the a novel PTT device, RestoreX, developed in cooperation Mayo Clinic, men PD. Aim To assess safety and treatment RestoreX device plus collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) compared CCH alone other devices.

RestoreX is a novel penile traction therapy device, with randomized, controlled data demonstrating improvements in length and erectile function after 30 to 90 minutes of daily use men Peyronie's disease. We sought determine if similar could be achieved post prostatectomy.Men prostatectomy were randomly assigned control or one 2 protocols for 6 months, followed by 3-month open-label phase. The current study presents from the randomized primary outcome was changes stretched length; secondary...
To report open-label phase data from a recent randomized controlled trial (RCT), after previous that study showed improved penile length and erectile function among post-prostatectomy men treated with Restorex traction therapy (RxPTT).An RCT (NCT05244486) was performed to evaluate RxPTT vs no treatment (Tx) for 5 months, which followed by 3-month phase. Men were stratified based on as-treated data: Group 1 = No Tx; 2 Tx → 3 4 Tx. Assessments included stretched standardized (International...
