Prostate problems Survival Rates
Friday, June 26th, 2009The five year relative survival rate is the share Of men who do not die from prostate cancer inside five years after the tumor is found. ( Men with prostate cancer who die from other causes are not counted.) Of course, patients might live more than 5 years after diagnosis. These five year survival rates are based on men with prostate cancer first treated more than 5 years ago. Treatment has gotten better since that time may lead to a better outlook for lately diagnosed patients.
