No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Note that the study mentioned above was for men diagnosed with clinical T3 cancer. That is, before surgery they were known to have spread out of the organ. Such men often are pushed to radiation since cure by scalpel is so much less likely. Is it possible that men with pathological found spread after surgery (pT3) might do better then these brothers who in essence had a debulking surgery?
