| Core Tip |
This observational study evaluated the impact of radical prostatectomy on psychological status and quality of life (QoL) in 102 prostate cancer patients. Using pre- and one-month postoperative assessments (numerical rating scale pain, Hamilton Anxiety, Hamilton Depression, European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30, and short-form 36 questionnaires), results showed statistically significant (P < 0.05) improvements in QoL scores alongside significant reductions in pain, anxiety, and depression. The study concludes that radical prostatectomy significantly enhances psychological well-being and QoL one month post-surgery, providing valuable insights for therapeutic considerations. |
