I am also immensely grateful to Associate Professor Dolezhal, he directly operated on me and subsequently observed the recovery process
Specialist Aleksey helped me very carefully, personally and for sure. Dad successfully underwent prostatectomy in the Czech Republic. I thank all the people involved in organizing Bookimed !!! Testimonial from patient Sergey: Dear visitors of the site "Bookimed", hello. I want to share my story with you. My name is Sergey, St. Petersburg, I am 65 years old and I have had prostate cancer. 03/19. 19 I got a PSA 6.26 analysis result. (I periodically donated blood for PSA, as there were some problems of a urological nature, besides, I was at risk, my father had prostate cancer) I turned to an oncologist, did an MRI of the pelvis, which showed that I in the left lobe of the gland, a capsule of 20x8 mm, conclusion: PIRADS 5, as bad as possible, as the doctor said. Next, the biopsy that confirmed the cancer, “Acinar Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate,” the total score for Gleason 6. Of course it was a hit! Although I understood that this is quite possible. My relatives helped me a lot: wife, children (I have two sons), wife of the eldest son (I do not like the word daughter-in-law). And then the question, "where to do the operation?" His son was told about the existence of the Bookimed company, which helps people in finding the best treatment option for various diseases around the world. He turned to this company, where he was immediately answered and offered two, the most acceptable options, the Czech Republic or Germany, the operation on the Da Vinci robot. Frankly, I was inclined to have surgery in St. Petersburg (three clinics have Da Vinci robots), but after talking with our doctors and the organizer of the operation at St. Zdislava Hospital in the Czech Republic, Irina Korchminskaya, I came to the conclusion that the operation should be done in Czech Republic !!! About a second, later did not regret it! As soon as I agreed to the operation, (previously I sent the results of the examination), on May 17, I was immediately scheduled for surgery on June 3. They immediately told me that the operation will be done by an assistant professor Dolezhal (experience, more than 2000 operations on prostate cancer on a robot !!!), assisted by Professor Tvaruzhek. All information about the clinic and doctors in the public domain on the website of the hospital of St. Zdislava. This is one of the many reasons why I had surgery there, and not in Russia, I could not get information on the statistics of operations performed by doctors in St. Petersburg. I flew to Prague 05/01/19, I was met at the airport and taken to the hospital, there I was met by the translator Otakar Peshek, speaks excellent Russian. 05/03/19 I had surgery, everything went well. I want to thank the entire staff of the hospital, all the great professionals, have been working in this hospital for many years, starting from nurses. Of course, many thanks to Professor Tvarujek, he is a great professional and a wonderful person! For all my busyness, whenever I had questions, I found time to answer them and give recommendations. I am also immensely grateful to Associate Professor Dolezhal, he directly operated on me and subsequently observed the recovery process. Special thanks to Dr. Khamzin! He did not participate in the operation and was not my attending physician. He graduated from the Leningrad Medical Institute, but for about twenty years he has been living and working in the Czech Republic, he stopped by several times, asked how he was doing and made recommendations for further recovery after being discharged from the hospital (gymnastics, etc.). While in the hospital, I contacted the employees of Bookimed three times. , on issues that have arisen with me and now, two months after the operation, I keep in touch with them, as well as with the St. Zdislava hospital, thank you all very much! Now everything is fine with me, almost completely recovered. 08/01/19 donated blood for PSA, the result is 0.026. I want to tell everyone who is faced with the same problem as mine, do not despair! Cancer, this is just a diagnosis! He can be defeated! You just need to turn to the professionals on time! And in the hospital of St. Zdislava wonderful doctors and nurses work! During my stay in the hospital, people underwent surgery: from Latvia, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Croatia, Mexico, Russia !! While in the hospital, I met one person from Riga, with the same problem as mine. We arrived with him on the same day, we performed operations with him on the same day, and on the same day we headed home. While walking in the surroundings (after the operation you need to walk as much as possible, and the hospital is located in the reserve!), We had the idea to travel across Europe from the hospital of St. Zdislava to the Spanish city of Santiago de Compostela on kickbike scooters under the slogan "we beat cancer!". We want to help people who for the first time encounter the same problem as ours understand that cancer can be defeated! We know how important support and faith are for such people, we have come this way! Perhaps this run will draw someone's attention to the existence of this problem and it will reveal this disease in time! The sooner a person turns to specialists with this problem, the easier it will be to win! If someone has questions, I will try to answer everyone, write Read more less

"He is very happy that he finally got rid of the cancer using the da Vinci robot
The Medipol Clinic in Istanbul was recommended to me by bookimed specialists. I was very pleased with the additional service. We were met with my father at the airport and taken to the guest house, which was provided by the hospital free of charge, as well as free 3 meals a day, not only for my father, but also for me. Every day a car came for us to take us to the clinic, as well as to take us back. We were provided with the services of an interpreter. Translator Murat turned out to be a very good person, he told everything and helped absolutely everything. operas atsiyu. Everything went fine, he is very happy that he finally got rid of the cancer using the da Vinci robot. The staff after the operation behaved very courteously and neatly. Read more less

Bookimed is a company of a good modern level, in any case do not think not to trust
I want to evaluate the work of Bookimed as a whole on the results of organizing the treatment of a father well. After examining the results of the surveys, we were presented with options for treatment. Despite the fact that initially we practically had a clinic for treatment selected (on our own), we revised and made a decision to undergo treatment at a clinic in Germany, which Bookimed offered. For all organizational issues, both Bookimed and the logistics company from the clinic offered support. We did everything on our own, but still it is nice when they want to help you. There were minor inconsistencies in organizational issues. But with the mines that provide support, always in touch and help them solve. But as for the treatment process at Helios Krefeld, everything is on the level. The result is satisfied. Of the minuses - the discharge process is not fully organized, the time for receipt of documents is not specific and rather long. A translator is needed. After we returned from treatment, we are awaiting the receipt of documents (conclusions) from the clinic, we have not left us on this issue either. Bookimed is a company of a good modern level, in any case do not think not to trust. The main thing is to keep the level and only raise it. Read more less

For a long time I have chosen a clinic for performing robotic nerve-sparing surgery according to the Da Vinci method. In Kazakhstan, such operations are not performed. I wanted to go to Germany or Israel, negotiated with them, but due to covid restrictions I had to choose Turkey. And I did not regret it at all. From the proposed options I chose the Anadolu clinic. After 6 days I was already in Istanbul. The entire organization and coordination of treatment was at the highest level. For which I am very grateful to coordinator Eliza. She was always in touch and could be contacted for any question. Special thanks to the translators Zahida and Muhammad. They were very attentive and responsive, they were always interested in my condition and were in touch. Now directly about the treatment. After examination by an oncourologist and providing him with all the examinations at home, in 2 days I was scheduled for an operation. No extra examinations and money spinning were appointed. My attending physician Ilker Tinay performed the operation brilliantly. The operation lasted for about 5 hours, under general anesthesia, but by the evening I was already forced to walk, accompanied by nurses. And after another 2 days I was able to check out. In the department, everyone from the doctor to the orderlies performed their work competently and professionally. I would also like to say about the conditions. A separate room of about 20 sq. m with a shower, toilet, pull-out chair for an accompanying person, TV, refrigerator and even a safe. (My hotel room was worse). After I was discharged, the doctor examined me three more times and gave me recommendations. And now after 2 weeks I feel almost completely healthy and there are no side effects (although according to statistics this is possible and quite often). I would like to thank my attending physician Ilker Tinay for his qualified and attentive approach to my treatment. As a result, the cost of examination and treatment was significantly different for the better from the same in Europe or Israel. Thanks to everyone who took part in this.

Prostate cancer treatment at Teknon Medical Center is carried out in the Oncology Institute.

The tumor is removed with a laparoscope through small incisions - up to 2 cm. The procedure saves the patient’s erectile and urinary functions.

Radiotherapy is conducted by Teknon specialists who use Novalis linear accelerator. It determines the size of the tumor and selects the dose of irradiation. The device accurately affects the tumor and does not affect the surrounding tissue.

Chemotherapy is prescribed for men with metastatic cancer.

The choice of treatment option depends on the type of tumor, age and general condition of a patient.

Good afternoon. In October 2019, my dad (who needed to undergo a Pat-CT examination with gallium 68 (psma) visited the Medipol University Hospital. The impressions are different from the coordinators and the hospital itself. Everything is very coordinated and thought out. The coordinators "led" us starting from Ukraine and ending with serving in Ukraine. So I really want to thank Anna, Olga, Zulfiya, Elmira, Babadzhan and others for their attention and support. At the hospital we underwent a qualified examination, consultation (though we had to pass additional tests, which were are necessary for the doctor) and the recommendations of the necessary doctors (the translator Elmira was always there, so we understood everything). Everything was at a very high level. The next day, after the examination, we received all the documents in Turkish and within a week they sent me translations in English and Russian languages by e-mail. After 3 months, my dad and I plan to fly for re-examination. I really hope that this time the team of coordinators will also work 100%! Guys! Thank you very much!

The choice helped to make bookimed, and I highly recommend using this excellent service. As a user, I would like to name the most basic plus. First and foremost, it is time saving, and in some cases it is equivalent to the preservation of health and life. And what is important, without costs for the patient, there is simply no payment for the company's service. Moreover, service coordinators are a huge resource for patients. We had Konstantin, and we are very grateful for the help and the choice of the best medical solution (at the price / quality / reputation of the doctor / clinic) and great help in solving logistical issues. When we have to deal with "medical tourism", there are no tourism patients for the patients there: (In addition to the medical problem, there are many practical, financial, coordination issues. It is important to have support on the side of the patient, we are very grateful. Now about the clinic: in general, the clinic liked, very modern and good equipment (so it was chosen), a good price-quality ratio. . From the pros: the doctor radiologist and the staff of the radiological department were attentive and in matters of medicine, and just a relationship. 40 sessions are 40 visits to the clinic, it is difficult, both physically and morally. The benevolent staff really helped make this experience less painful in all respects. I will not write much about the interior of the clinic, but for whom the aesthetics are important, yes, everything is excellent, modern, clean, often more like a hotel. As elsewhere, there is a large team of translators. To communicate with doctors used English directly, there certainly are many advantages. But all 40 sessions and not only were always assisted by translators in communicating with junior honey. personnel, coordination issues, medical records to the doctor, analyzes, transfers, etc. From the minuses: The clinic is in a very expensive and difficult physically accessible area (on a hill). Despite the fact that we lived side by side (significantly overpaying compared to other areas of Istanbul), we had to use motor transport every day. For a short stay, this is not a problem, but when a longer period is still an inconvenience. Some translators of the clinic introduced the category of "minuses" of the clinic. People are different, qualification, too, but it was still in a significant minority (our main interpreter was both professional and human). Again in the minority (!), But for the objectivity to mention, some doctors offered super expensive tests in very standard situations. For example, oh, well, if you want, in addition to the X-ray, we can do another CT scan (when coughing), which besides doubtful honey. values ​​(not to mention money) was recently and so done. Again, our main doctor is very intelligible and enthusiastically explained the essence of the treatment, the expected effect, side effects, prescribed drugs on time to eliminate them, which of course, most important! As a conclusion, the minuses will always and everywhere, but in general, from our experience, we are satisfied with the process of treatment in the LIV hospital. Thank you hospital and bukimed team.

We got to the MEMORIAL clinic due to an urgent diagnosis. The successful outcome of the operation depended on promptness. The question was about days. The operation was carried out the next day. The most difficult operation according to the Whipple method. Conducted by professor, head of surgery. Low bow to him. The entire staff of the department works perfectly, promptly responds to any request. Separately, I want to say about the work of the translator Aida. High qualification, operational work at any time of the day, sincerity - only a small description of her qualities. Special thanks for providing meals to the patient and accompanying person. The cuisine is very tasty, in some positions it is better than homemade. I enjoyed the vegetarian cuisine. But there is a different one. A low bow to all the staff of the clinic. They saved my husband's life.

When they learned what was needed in the clinic, they didn’t even know where to run and whom to contact. Coordinators helped to select a clinic. They gave us a doctor. Everything went great, the doctor is a true professional.  Separately, I want to note the attitude to patients. We were met at the airport, brought to the clinic and there was already a translator waiting. Literally "by the hand" we were taken to the doctors, everyone translated. Then they provided a taxi to the hotel.   During the operation, the ward was provided for two people - for the patient and the attendant; both of them were included in the cost of the operation.   After surgery, the doctor held a consultation, making sure that you can fly back. And only then answered questions remotely that arose.  Clinic definitely recommend

FAQ about Prostate cancer Treatment

What are prostate cancer treatment methods?

Prostate cancer is a form of cancer that develops in the prostate gland, which is a small walnut-shaped gland in men that produces the seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm.

Prostate Cancer Treatment Methods

Prostate cancer awareness

  • Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among men, especially older men. It is estimated that approximately 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime.
  • Major risk factors include age (most common in men aged 65 and older), family history (risk increases if a father or brother had prostate cancer), race (more common in African American men), and lifestyle factors such as diet.
  • Early stages of prostate cancer often have no symptoms. In more advanced cases, symptoms might include difficulty urinating, blood in urine or semen, erectile dysfunction, and discomfort in the pelvic area.
  • Prostate cancer has a very high survival rate compared to other cancers. The overall 5-year survival rate is around 98%. When detected at a local or regional stage, the survival rate is nearly 100%.

Prostate cancer what is it

Depending on the stage of prostate cancer, different treatment methods demonstrate varying levels of effectiveness:

1. Early-Stage Prostate Cancer (Localized)

  • Active Surveillance. Monitoring the cancer closely through regular PSA tests and biopsies without active treatment is highly effective in carefully selected patients, with minimal progression in many cases over several years.
  • Surgery (Radical Prostatectomy). Complete removal of the prostate gland and some surrounding tissues, potentially including lymph nodes. Offers a high chance of eradicating cancer, with a 5-year survival rate close to 100%.
  • Radiation Therapy. Treatment with high-energy rays or particles to destroy cancer cells. Can be external beam radiation or brachytherapy (radioactive seeds). Comparable to surgery with most localized cases having a 5-year survival rate close to 100%.
Treatment Method Method Description Success Rate
Active Surveillance Regular monitoring through PSA tests and biopsies without immediate treatment. Helps to manage the disease in early stages, avoiding or delaying the side effects of more aggressive therapies.

5-year survival rate close to 100%

Surgery (Radical Prostatectomy) Complete removal of the prostate gland and some surrounding tissues, potentially including lymph nodes. 5-year survival rate close to 100%
Radiation Therapy Treatment with high-energy rays or particles to destroy cancer cells, can be external beam radiation or brachytherapy. 5-year survival rate close to 100%

2. Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer

  • Radiation Therapy Plus Hormone Therapy. Radiation combined with drugs lowers androgen levels, which can stimulate prostate cancer growth. This combination improves survival, with studies showing a 10-year survival rate of approximately 60-75%.
  • Surgery Plus Adjuvant Therapy. Prostatectomy followed by additional treatments based on risk factors and cancer spread, typically involving radiation or hormone therapy. Can increase disease-free survival rates significantly, with 10-year survival rates ranging from 70-80%.
Treatment Method Method Description Success Rate
Radiation Therapy + Hormone Therapy Combination of radiation with drugs that lower androgen levels to inhibit cancer growth. 10-year survival rate approx. 60-75%
Surgery + Adjuvant Therapy Prostatectomy followed by additional treatments (radiation or hormone therapy) based on cancer spread and risk. 10-year survival rate approx. 70-80%

3. Advanced and Metastatic Prostate Cancer

  • Hormone Therapy. Medications to reduce testosterone levels, which prostate cancer cells rely on to grow. Can control disease progression for an average of 18-24 months before resistance develops.
  • Chemotherapy. Uses drugs like Docetaxel to kill cancer cells, especially useful when hormone therapy stops working. Extends median survival by several months, typically improving survival by about 2-3 months on average.
  • Immunotherapy. Treatments that help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells, such as Sipuleucel-T (Provenge). Extends life, improving survival by about 4 months on average in treated patients.
  • Bone-directed Therapy. Treatments to strengthen bones and relieve pain from bone metastases include drugs like denosumab and bisphosphonates. Effective in reducing skeletal-related events and improving quality of life, though not directly improving survival rates.

Xofigo (radium-223 dichloride) is a type of bone-directed therapy that specifically targets bone metastases. Unlike traditional systemic treatments, Xofigo precisely targets areas where cancer has spread to the bones. It delivers targeted radiation directly to these bone metastases, helping to alleviate symptoms and extend life.

In a major study called the ALSYMPCA trial, it was found that patients who were treated with Xofigo lived about 3.6 months longer on average compared to those who didn't receive this treatment.This shows that Xofigo can help extend the life of patients with advanced prostate cancer affecting the bones.

Treatment Method Method Description Success Rate
Hormone Therapy Medications to reduce testosterone levels, which prostate cancer cells rely on to grow. Controls disease for avg. 18-24 months.
Chemotherapy Uses drugs like Docetaxel to kill cancer cells, especially useful when hormone therapy stops working. Extends survival by 2-3 months.
Immunotherapy Treatments like Sipuleucel-T that help the immune system attack cancer cells. Extends life by approx. 4 months.
Bone-directed Therapy Treatments such as denosumab and bisphosphonates to strengthen bones and relieve pain from bone metastases. Reduces skeletal events, improves quality of life.

Recent advancements in prostate cancer treatment have significantly improved outcomes, particularly in the advanced stages of the disease.

1. Introduction of PSMA PET-CT scans, which provides precise detection of cancer spread.

2. Genomic Testing allows for personalized treatment plans based on genetic profiles.

3. New Hormonal therapy drugs like Apalutamide and Enzalutamide extend life for men with resistant forms of prostate cancer.

In the TITAN trial, Apalutamide combined with ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) showed a 33% reduction in the risk of death compared to ADT alone. At two years of follow-up, approximately 82% of men receiving Apalutamide with ADT were still alive, versus 74% of men treated with ADT and a placebo.

4. Radioligand therapy in which Lu-PSMA-617 targets and delivers radiation directly to cancer cells, effective in advanced cases.

In the VISION trial, the therapy significantly extended both overall survival and progression-free survival compared to standard treatments alone. Patients treated with Lu-PSMA-617 experienced a median overall survival of 15.3 months, compared to 11.3 months for those receiving only the standard care.

These advancements are particularly beneficial in managing advanced prostate cancer, representing significant progress toward more targeted, less invasive, and personalized treatments.
