Had open prostectomy just got biopsy report

Posted , 3 users are following.

so my urologist took out the insides of my prostate (because of a gigantic prostate and left the outer shell. He said the pathology report shows a gleason of 7(3+4),  T1a, group 2. Slow growing cancer found in only 5 % of my prostate. Any thoughts? My urologist thinks this is good news because it was removed.
