Abstract

The high-risk group of prostate cancers is a heterogeneous group. A better definition of the criteria could bring a better selection of patients' selection in the combined local treatment or even in the general treatment. A treatment of these forms is the hormonoradiotherapy. The modalities of the radiotherapy and the hormonotherapy are to be defined and to be adapted according to prognostic factors of these patients. The surgery is also a possible treatment under certain conditions of selection of the patients and the adaptation of the surgical techniques. It can be combined either with other local treatments, radiotherapy for example, or even general ones. The pathological evaluation allows to identify overstaging and to avoid some unnecessary androgen therapy and also side effects. For the oligometastatic forms, the interest of the local treatment remains to appreciate. In the metastatic forms, a chemotherapy associated with the hormonotherapy must be proposed and seems to become a reference.
