Primary radiotherapy versus radical prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer: a decision analysis.

abstract：:Leukemic cells from 13 patients with therapy-related acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) were studied by electron microscopy. All of the patients had radiotherapy, and/or alkylating agent chemotherapy for other neoplastic disease 25 to 182 months prior to the diagnosis of ANLL. All cases manifested ultrastructural ev...
