Please share the reports , if it’s a urothelial cancer we may need further active treatment , as that could be an aggressive tumor .
But if it’s of other types of usual prostate cancer (adenocarcinoma ) we can consider less aggressive options as this amis a slow growing cancer .
Please share all available reports including blood reports PSA and also his general condition based on that we can decide the line of CV treatment .
You can consult me at any stage of treatment will be happy to help you .
