The care of prostate cancer looks different depending on where in the country you live.
In 2020, Västmanland had the lowest mortality rate in Sweden for the diagnosis.
It shows data that SVT Västmanland and Uppdrag granskning have compiled from national registers.
Hans Eriksson and Håkan Eklund, good friends and neighbors at home in the residential area of Västerås, got prostate cancer only a year apart.
Today, both are healthy, after having surgery with robot surgery at Västmanland's hospital in Västerås.
In the clip, Hans and Håkan tell how they supported each other during the illness period.
