Prostate Cancer Surgery And Younger Men

"Although the majority of all prostate cancer are diagnosed in men older than 65, its prevalence is growing among men younger than 50. In fact, about one in 10,000 men under the age of 40 will be diagnosed this year with prostate cancer." " For men younger than 50 with prostate cancer, undergoing a radical prostatectomy can greatly increase their chances for long-term survival, according to a new study from Henry Ford Hospital." For more information about prostate cancer, see Canada, the US, the UK, Australia, and elsewhere.

Get checked gentlemen. Do not be afraid to ask your doctor. And please talk it up and spread the links.

Update: Insta-lanche! - Professor Reynolds heeds the call.
