Prostate surgery helps mostly those under 65

Earlier this month, a scientific review published in the Annals of Internal
Medicine concluded that evidence was too thin to recommend treatment over
watchful waiting, or one treatment over another. Studies do show that
prostate cancer surgery mostly helps men under 65, said Dr. Timothy Wilt
of
the Minneapolis VA Center for Chronic Disease Outcomes Research, who led
the
review.

The new study shows that for men older than that, "observation is a very
reasonable approach," he said. "Many men do quite well for a long period
of
time with no treatment."
