It can and often will kill, but the good news is it is easily detectable with a simple blood test.. and easily curable with robotic surgery...PROVIDED IT IS CAUGHT EARLY BEFORE IT LEAVES THE PROSTATE AND SPREADS INTO THE SURROUNDING BONES AND ORGANS.
It's actually 1:6 with 30,000 men a year dying from prostate cancer (but ~250,000 diagnosed each year). It's the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality in men. Yet, most men diagnosed with prostate cancer will die from something other than their cancer (typically heart disease). PSA screening is controversial but the best form of detection (along with digital rectal exam) that we currently have. If this guy died in his 50s from prostate cancer, he had particularly aggressive disease. Many urologists actually feel we over-treat prostate cancer in this country. There is a movement towards active surveillance in order to maintain quality of life for as long as possible and evidence thus far supports this is a safe approach in select patient groups. However, every patient is different and a good number prefer early treatment (surgery or radiation) over active surveillance.

Where did it mention he died from prostate cancer? I would have guessed lung or pancreatic if he passed so quickly.
