Jerry Orbach fighting prostate cancer

NEW YORK, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- "Law & Order" star Jerry Orbach has been undergoing prostate cancer treatments since the spring, the New York Daily News reported Thursday.

His manager, Robert Malcolm, declined to discuss how advanced the illness is or the nature of the treatment but said Orbach, 69, has not undergone surgery.

"We expect he'll be fine," Malcolm said. "He's been playing golf, shooting his episodes and doing real well."

Another source told the newspaper the actor has been getting outpatient care at a New York hospital and was hospitalized one night this week because of "a slight complication."

Orbach revealed his cancer to the cast and crew of "Law & Order" in April.
