Radical external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is a standard treatment for prostate cancer patients. Despite this, the rate of intraprostatic relapses after primary EBRT is still not negligible.

For these patients, local salvage therapy such as radical prostatectomy, cryotherapy, and brachytherapy may be indicated.
