Some good info here . 100 % agree best biopsy for accuracy and no pain is Transperrenial. Assuming the MRI scan indicated the cancer is contained within the capsule , 7 + Gleason score , good overall health etc removal should be seriously considered .Bracotherapy means for practical purposes surgery is not an option in the future .
As far as Surgery is concerned Robotic is a no brainer . The best . However the Surgeon ideally needs to have done a minimum of 200 + operations / procedures .
From personal experience I had a 3 day stay in hospital after surgery in France . With a course of physiotherapy post op when the catheter came out after 8 days pissing near normal along with erectile function the same time ( Ciallis had been prescribed) . This is for info only and I am in no way medically qualified to give advice . Best of luck to all .
