Men’s health in focus: The role of early detection and modern surgical procedures in prostate cancer is very important
Vienna (OTS) – Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, with 6,100 cases occurring each year. However, if detected early, prostate cancer is easily curable and treatable. In order to motivate more men to undergo early detection tests and at the same time allay their fear of treatment, the creative chefs of the Healthy Boy Band are swapping places as part of the Austrian Cancer Aid’s Loose Tie campaign(1) Lukas Mraz, Philip Rachinger and Felix Schellhorn once exchanged their chef’s hats for surgical caps. In a unique co-working with the surgeon, they show what is possible with the robot-assisted operating system. +++
