Types of chronic conditions combinations and initial cancer treatment among elderly Medicare beneficiaries with localised prostate cancer.
The authors sought to examine the association between types of chronic conditions combinations and initial cancer treatment among elderly Medicare beneficiaries with localised prostate cancer. They found that a significant proportion of elderly men with chronic conditions have received aggressive initial cancer treatment, and they suggested a conservative approach for the initial prostate cancer treatment among elderly men with significant chronic conditions and localised prostate cancer.
