Abstract
The PB is common after HDRB and HypoRT and can occur up to 76 months after treatment. It can rarely fit the criteria for BF. The time to PB is shorter than the time to BF. There is a lower incidence of BF in patients with a PB. An acknowledgment of this phenomenon should be made when interpreting PSA results during followup to prevent unnecessary interventions.
