Tri‐modality therapy with i‐125 brachytherapy, external beam radiation therapy, and short‐term hormone therapy for high‐risk prostate cancer after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate

Brachytherapy following transurethral prostate surgery is relatively contraindicated because of increased adverse urethral event frequency and seed placement difficulties. A tri-modality therapy, including brachytherapy, was implemented without any major problems in this patient with high-risk prostate cancer after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate, following which he had a favorable prognosis without recurrence for 6 years.
