Study Start Date: October 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2028
Estimated Primary Completion Date: October 2028 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

Patients meeting the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be identified from urology physician practices and contacted by phone to obtain informed consent. Chart review will be conducted here at William Beaumont Hospital and at The Beaumont Comprehensive Urology Center for enrolled patients. Additionally, questionnaires will be mailed at enrollment, and then yearly to assess urinary, bowel, and sexual function, and patient treatment goals, treatment satisfaction, cost, and general health and well being. Enrolled patients who opt for surgical treatment (identified by ongoing monitoring of the hospital's surgical boarding list) will complete an additional set of questionnaires at 6 months post surgery to capture short term outcomes. Completion of the questionnaires will be voluntary, and participants will be followed in this manner until voluntary withdrawal, exclusionary criteria emerge, or death
