Brief Summary

The goal of this trial is to assess the impact of focal HIFU therapy on quality of life in patients with favourable intermediate-risk localised prostate cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the prostate cancer-related quality of life in patients with favourable intermediate-risk localised cancer treated by total prostatectomy or focal HIFU ? Researchers will compare patients with favourable intermediate-risk localised cancer treated by total prostatectomy to patients with favourable intermediate-risk localised cancer treated by focal HIFU to see their quality of life. Participants will answer EPIC-CP questionnaire 6 months, 12 months and 24 months after treatment
