Abstract
Aim to analyze the survival of patients with localized low and intermediate risk prostate cancer receiving various types of treatment and active surveillance in the Samara region.
 Material and methods. The study included 1474 patients with newly diagnosed localized prostate cancer in the Samara region for the period 2010-2016.
 Results. In the Samara region, the radical prostatectomy proved to be the most effective treatment method. At the same time, the active surveillance was comparable to other treatment methods in men older than 75 years.
 Conclusion. The active surveillance can improve the managing of prostate cancer patients by reducing overtreatment of its clinically insignificant forms, reducing treatment costs and reducing the number of side effects of radical treatment. At the same time, the possibility of radical treatment remains in case of malignant neoplasm progression.
