Limited data exist as to the reasons patients have for deciding among potentially curative treatment choices in clinically localized prostate cancer. Therefore, we carried out a descriptive pilot study to determine such motivations, sources of information, and other variables that influence how such patients choose between radical prostatectomy (RP) and brachytherapy (BT).
