Zusammenfassung

Lebensqualität und die Verhinderung von Komplikationen stehen bei Patienten mit fortgeschrittenem Prostatakarzinom zunehmend im Vordergrund. Neben der Beherrschung lokaler Probleme wie Obstruktion, Makrohämaturie oder Lymphödemen nimmt dabei die Behandlung ossärer Metastasen und deren Komplikationen einen wichtigen Stellenwert ein. Analgetische Maßnahmen, Bisphosphonate, Strahlentherapie, enossale Schmerztherapie und neurochirurgische Verfahren stehen zur Verfügung. Eine Spinalkanalkompression mit akuten motorischen oder sensorischen Ausfällen bedarf sofortiger neurochirurgischer und/oder strahlentherapeutischer Behandlung. Eine bestehende Tumoranämie sollte adäquat behandelt werden.

Abstract

In patients with advanced prostate cancer, quality of life and prevention of complications come to the fore. Besides handling local complications such as obstruction, hematuria and lymphedema, treatment of bone metastases and their complications is of great importance. Analgesic measures, bisphosphonates, radiation therapy, radionuclide therapy and neurosurgical procedures are available. Spinal cord compression with acute motor and sensory deficiency requires immediate neurosurgical and/or radiation therapy. Tumor anemia should be treated appropriately.
