    AbstractFaced with equivalent treatments in terms of control of localised prostate cancer, by treatments as different as radical prostectomy and radiotherapy, the analysis of the physical and psychosocial consequences of each treatment is indispensable in determining the therapeutic options proposed to a patient. Current information on the quality of life after treatment of localised and metastatic prostate cancer show effects after treatment that are specific to this pathology (urinary, sexual and digestive problems) and general (physical state and functional capacity, capacity to accomplish all forms of work, capacity to maintain social relations...). These effects nevertheless differ depending of the stage of the disease and the type of treatment.
