[Therapy of the carcinoma of the prostate and case control (III) (Author's transl)].
In a third information of our long-term study with now 304 cases we report on 54 cases with monotherapy-only orchiectomy, only hormones and combination of boths. With it the rectal palpable results have coincided significantly with the histological findings in all 3 therapeutic forms. As for the therapeutic result no difference is to be seen either histological or clinical after a 3 years' observation period. We cannot tell anything now about optimal methods of treatment with regard to the histological starting material. In all 3 therapeutic forms we observed regressions to stage O. The smallest plasma-testosteron concentration was found after orchiectomy, where no increase was recorded during the whole observation period.
