Pubic Arch in Prostate Cancer


The pubic arch is the bone structure in the center of the body that is created the growing together to the two pubic bones. In prostate cancer treatments, pubic arch interference can disqualify some patients from receiving certain therapies. An interfering pubic arch in brachytherapy or cryotherapy could leave the prostate cancer inadequately treated. Patients will undergo the pubic arch evaluation to make sure they can receive their chosen prostate cancer treatment.
