Paperback. Zustand: Good. A Guide to Personalized Care. Patients face a real dilemma when selecting among so many treatments with potentially irreversible consquences. Studies show that treatment choices based on partial information often lead to regret.When initally diagnosed with prostate cancer, the first step is to seek information. Patients struggle to pinpoint correct knowledge amidst a deluge of data overload. The Paradox of Choice can be diminished by staging the cancer accurately. The pathway leading out of this confusion is to know your Stage of Blue. With a short, self-administered prostate cancer staging quiz, Key directs readers to targeted information that is stage-specific.This book directs patients to understand options and educate them about treatments specific for their stage of prostate cancer. A short STAGING QUIZ directs patients to their correct stage and which of the seven sections of the book to read. The book is divided into seven sections written by experts in prostate cancer. Five of the sections cover the FIVE STAGES OF BLUE. The average reader will only need to read three sections: Section I, which covers PSA, Gleason score and body scans, Section VI, which covers lifestyle and general health and only one of the additional sections--one that is related to that patient's prostate cancer stage. Written by 30 leading experts and edited by a prostate oncologist, Key is a welcome antidote for an industry dominated by surgeons. This book helps patients and doctors work together on a level playing field to intelligently discuss the latest options. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. An indispensable map through the medical minefield of prostate cancer, revised and updated with the latest developments in treatment options.   Every year almost a quarter of a million confused and frightened American men are tossed into a prostate cancer cauldron stirred by salespeople representing a multibillion-dollar industry. Patients are too often rushed into a radical prostatectomy, a major operation that rarely prolongs life and more than half the time leaves them impotent. Invasion of the Prostate Snatchers argues that close monitoring--active surveillance rather than surgery or radiation--should be the initial treatment approach for many men at the low- and intermediate-risk stages. In a unique collaboration, doctor and patient provide a wholly new perspective on managing this disease. Ralph Blum's account of his personal struggle, together with Dr. Mark Scholz's presentation of new scientific advances, offers convincing evidence that this noninvasive approach can be crucial in preventing tens of thousands of men from being overtreated each year. This revised and updated second edition:   -Highlights the latest prostate cancer treatment options that preserve erectile and urinary function while prolonging lifespan  -Establishes updated protocol for how to accurately interpret high prostate-specific antigen (PSA) while avoiding the invasive, dangerous random biopsy -Recounts true patient stories that accurately represent the hurdles today's patients face while navigating a prostate cancer diagnosis  -Introduces the latest evidence in the radiation vs. radical prostatectomy debate  -Presents the latest thinking on diet and exercise for men with prostate cancer.…
