Abstract

We performed photodynamic diagnosis using a photosensitizer «Alasens» during open retropubic and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and analyzed the clinical results of the study. The method of photodynamic diagnosis makes it possible to detect areas of the tumor bed of the prostate during the surgery with subsequent resection. The technique is a promising method for reducing the incidence of positive surgical margins.

Keywords
