Population‐level diagnostic and radiation treatment trends of low‐risk prostate cancer

Cancer, Volume 132, Issue 21, 1 November 2026.
Abstract Background Overtreatment of low‐risk prostate cancer (PC) undermines screening efforts. Active surveillance is preferred for low‐risk PC, but declining treatment may reflect diagnostic or treatment‐selection changes. We assessed diagnostic risk‐group trends among localized PC and low‐risk trends among radiation‐treated patients since 2010 ...

Off‐midline versus supraumbilical specimen extraction sites in robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy

BJU International, Volume 138, Issue 5, Page 886-893, November 2026.
Objectives To compare two different specimen extraction sites (SES) (off‐midline [OM] vs. supraumbilical) for the incidence of incisional hernias (IHs) and to evaluate different risk factors for their occurrence after robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy.
