Can someone tell me how many radical prostatectomies are performed
each year in Italy and Spain? If you can only find information for one
of the countries, it will be okay to give information for the one that
you can find.

Hello again Lauren0125,

I finally located the figures you need for Italy at the Italian
Ministry Health website.

I am posting my findings as the official answer to your question
because you said it would be okay to give information for one of the
countries. I have not had any luck with the figures for Spain.

Great information for Italy!! I'll repost a separate question to see
if anyone can find anything on the number of procedures in Spain.
