Post-prostatectomy treatments (ADT and/or RT) and the postoperative radiation field (prostate bed vs. prostate bed + pelvis) have a significant impact on the recurrence pattern. This knowledge can help clinicians to counsel their patients on their chances of being eligible for (locoregional) metastasis-directed therapies.
