Abstract

Radical prostatectomy remains a cornerstone of prostate cancer treatment, but its role and relevance have evolved in the context of 21st-century advancements in cancer care. This paper examines the current role of radical prostatectomy in the management of prostate cancer, considering new diagnostic techniques, treatment modalities, and evolving patient demographics. We explore how radical prostatectomy integrates with contemporary approaches, including advanced imaging, personalized medicine, and minimally invasive techniques. By analyzing recent clinical data, treatment outcomes, and expert opinions, this study provides a contemporary perspective on the effectiveness, challenges, and future directions of radical prostatectomy in prostate cancer care.
