Objective: To examine prostate cancer survivors' resilience and effective nursing practice for them.

Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 prostate cancer survivors at 6 to 18 months after surgery, and the obtained data were analyzed, adopting the modified grounded theory approach.

Results: The prostate cancer survivors' resilience was summarized into a process of [reconstituting their identity as a male] to develop a new sense of self-worth, adopting a different perspective of manliness, while <recognizing their unique qualities to assert themselves>, <finding themselves still needed in society>, and <realizing that their partner's presence is indispensable at all times>. The process was promoted by <convincing themselves that this cancer is not fatal> and <confirming the significance of life>.

Conclusion: The promotion of this process may be effective for resilience-focused nursing practice. Nurses should help them develop a new sense of self-worth by realizing that they are socially recognized as a person even if their erectile function and urinary control cannot be maintained.
