Fox News
A study in the New England Journal of Medicine showed most men diagnosed with localized prostate cancer can actively monitor the disease instead of jumping to surgery or radiation.
The study, which began in the United Kingdom in 1999, involved 2,664 men between the ages of 50 and 69 who were diagnosed with localized prostate cancer. Of those men, 1,643 were enrolled in a trial studying three different treatment methods - surgery to remove tumors (553), radiation (545), and active monitoring (545).
After a median range of 15 years, researchers compared the participants with death from prostate cancer and death from other causes. The study noted that more than one third of the men were considered to be intermediate or high-risk when diagnosed.
