Prostate cancer is a complex disease that is accompanied by a vast amount of treatment options whose effects depend on variety of factors. New strategies have been developed within the past 10 years that have brought on more effective treatments in diagnosing and treating prostate cancer. In this review, we discuss the latest diagnosis and treatments for prostate cancer and present their shortcomings to outline a future direction of development. At present, significant progress in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer has been made although the limitations seen reveal that there are still more aspects to be explored.
