Focal salvage HIFU conferred a relatively low complication and side effect rate. CEFS and biochemical control in the short to medium term were reasonable, especially in this relatively high-risk cohort, but still low compared with current whole-gland salvage therapies. Focal salvage therapy may offer disease control in men at high risk whilst minimizing additional treatment morbidities.
