ABSTRACT
The fate of the first 52 patients with clinically localized prostate cancer who underwent total perineal prostatectomy at our clinic and have been followed for a minimum of 15 years is reviewed to evaluate the long-term impact of this operation on the disease. None of these patients received any adjuvant therapy. Nine patients (17 per cent) had recurrence and 5 (10 per cent) died of disease during this interval. The actual observed over-all survival at 15 years was 64 per cent, the actuarial survival was 67 per cent and the cause-specific survival was 90 per cent.
