At only 47, he would probably still like all things to function & that removes most options. Sometimes the nerve sparing robotic surgery will achieve that, mostly. If it is confined & not too far advanced, he should "choose any method he wants as long as it is proton radiation therapy". Least invasive by far, far less peripherial damage than IMRT, conventional radiation, seeds, certainly surgery, or any others. At 70, done a year ago and ALL systems functional and I'm not alone, know others. I could never recommend anything else in the way of prostate cancer treatment.

Google Proton radiation therapy and find much info, maybe start with Loma Linda University Medical Center. There are more & more facilities doing proton therapy everyday, but they are no where as common as old conventional X-ray radiation. Besides the lesser damage overall, it is so much more focused as to do very minimal damage to nearby parts of the body, including tissue that radiation must pass through to get to the target.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
