Analysis of quality of life and late biochemical predictors for localized cancer recurrence following radical prostatectomy

Background Patients with localized prostate cancer (PCa) experience biochemical recurrence (BCR) despite a curatively intended radical prostatectomy (RP). The aim of this study was to describe the quality of life (QoL) of patients with a BCR while identifying predictors of early (ER) and late recurrence (LR).
