Sexual dysfunction presents a major challenge to physicians who take on the task of treating men with prostate cancer. While curing the disease and saving a life is paramount, improving technologies and therapies offer skilled surgeons and clinical oncologists the opportunity to eradicate the disease without compromising sexual function. In Sexual Function of the Prostate Cancer Patient, John Mulhall and a panel of internationally recognized experts on prostate cancer and sexual function assess in detail the current state of prostate cancer treatment. The authors offer a broad overview of the pathophysiology and treatment of erectile dysfunction in men with prostate cancer, reviewing the latest findings regarding erection-sparing radiation therapy and sexual function outcomes after laparascopic and robotic prostatectomy. Additional chapters discuss intra-operative maneuvers to minimize post-operative erectile dysfunction and pharmacologic penile preservation and rehabilitation. Timely and authoritative, Sexual Function in the Prostate Cancer Patient is a highly readable guide to preserving post-prostate cancer sexual function that no urologist or radiation and medical oncologist should be without.

The average physician and even cancer care-givers are not knowledgeable about the effects of cancer treatment on sex and reproductive life. They are even less aware of the options available for treatment of such patients. Cancer and Sexual Health fills a great need for a reference work devoted to the link between cancer and human sexuality. The volume is designed to give a comprehensive and state-of-the-art review of the sexual and reproductive consequences of cancer diagnosis and treatment. It will prove an invaluable resource for those clinicians caring for cancer patients as well as acting as a reference text for the sexual medicine clinician who may not see a large number of cancer patients.

The American Cancer Society estimated 161,360 new cases of prostate cancer diagnosed in the United States, with an estimated 26,730 deaths in 2017. Furthermore, one in seven men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime and one in 38 men will die from it. It is the second most common cancer in American men after skin cancer, and the second leading cause of cancer death in American men after lung cancer. Sexual dysfunction affects 33-98% of men diagnosed with prostate cancer. Sexual dysfunction in a cancer patient is multidimensional and results from biological, psychological, and social factors. Prostate cancer, along with the sexual problems it brings, can greatly impact important aspects of a man's intrapersonal and interpersonal functioning. In addition to the biological understanding of sexual dysfunction, a psychological and social understanding of its implications is crucial in order to approach prostate cancer treatment in a holistic manner. The purpose of this literature review was to provide a comprehensive understanding of those factors that impact a man's intrapersonal and interpersonal sexual functioning when faced with prostate cancer. This review will also highlight some helpful treatment options to address sexual functioning for men with prostate cancer and/or their partners. Lastly, the literature review will review the limitations of the current research in order to suggest directions for future research. Databases used for this literature review included PsychINFO, PsychARTICLES, PubMed, ERIC, and MEDLINE, using keywords "prostate cancer, sexual functioning, intrapersonal factors; interpersonal factors; sexual side effects of treatment; sexual dysfunction; masculinity; sexual intimacy; treatment outcome. Sixty articles were deemed to address the purposes of this review and therefore were included in the Results section. Individual psychological factors that may contribute to the onset and maintenance of sexual difficulties include depression, general anxiety, sexual performance anxiety, and negative and maladaptive cognitive processing. The main intrapersonal concerns related to sexual functioning are self-image, self-esteem, masculinity, and one's own psychological functioning. Men are likely to worry about the impact of sexual dysfunction on their relationship and the effect that it may have on their partner. The interpersonal factors that have been shown to be associated with sexual difficulties in men are intimacy, relationship satisfaction, and relationship conflict.

Men who have completed prostate cancer treatment often find themselves facing new challenges and setbacks that do not necessarily recede along with the cancer. Many books endeavor to explain the different types of prostate cancer treatments, but most conclude once a treatment choice has been made, offering readers little in the way of guidance through the challenges of the post-treatment period. After Prostate Cancer: A What-Comes-Next Guide to a Safe and Informed Recovery picks up where those books leave off. Dr. Arnold Melman, Chair of the Department of Urology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, offers a thorough description of what the prostate cancer recovery process is like and what readers can do to move themselves through recovery to the best possible health and long-term prognosis. Giving detailed explanations of what to expect and why based on diagnosis, treatment methodology, and other variables that make each man's post-treatment experience different, Dr. Melman offers strategies for mindfully and healthfully approaching post therapy issues, including confronting PSA measurement, erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence and psychological issues that are a common result of living through prostate cancer and treatment. Sharing the experiences of other prostate cancer patients in addition to accessible explanations of the available medical literature, Dr. Melman helps readers and their partners to get the best information, make the most informed decisions, feel comfortable with those decisions, and work through issues as they arise. Treatment is only the beginning of getting back to a healthy life after a diagnosis. After Prostate Cancer offers the best information to help readers with everything that comes next. "After Prostate Cancer offers readers order who are often faced with chaos. Melman and Newnham have written an informative guide for the recovering prostate cancer patient."--Mani Menon, M.D., The Raj and Padma Vattikuti Distinguished Chair and Director, Vattikuti Urology Institute, Henry Ford Health System "Now the hundreds of men who have benefitted directly from Dr. Arnold Melman's compassionate care for prostate cancer will swell into the thousands as the readers of this book take home his wisdom and sound advice. The information he provides is straightforward and practical, including both medical and emotional sides of the experience. This book is a welcome addition to the self-help library for prostate cancer survivors."--Leslie R. Schover, Ph.D., Professor of Behavioral Science, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center "This book summarizes the field of recovery after prostate cancer perfectly for the patient and his family. The authors cover all the topics that patients who have undergone treatment want to know about, including how to manage side effects. The text is readable and the information is imparted in an easy-to-understand style. I recommend this book to patients, their loved ones, and anyone else who has been affected by a prostate cancer diagnosis."--Ashutosh K. Tewari, M.D., M.Ch., Director, Prostate Cancer Institute and the LeFrak Robotic Surgery Center, Weill Cornell Medical College
