This clinical trial is to provide a minimally invasive treatment option in which the targeted prostate cancer tissue is killed by cryoablation at extremely low temperatures only in the specific area of cancer "that should be treated for saving of life"; while, leaving a portion of the normal prostate tissue that is not cancerous. It is a treatment, named by "focal therapy" for "clinically localized prostate cancer". As this new treatment is aiming to treat only specific prostatic area of cancer, it is different from the invasive conventional treatment to remove the entire prostate gland. The goal is to achieve both to control of known cancer by treating only the cancerous area and to maintain of QOL (Quality-of-life) by leaving of the other normal prostate tissue and its surrounding organs intact resulting in prevention of urinary-leakage and sexual-dysfunction as the complications.
