متن کاملEvaluating PSA Density as a Predictor of Biochemical Failure after Radical Prostatectomy: Results of a Prospective Study after a Median Follow-Up of 36 Months
Purpose. To evaluate the predictive ability of PSA density for biochemical relapse after radical prostatectomy in patients operated for clinically localized disease and to compare its predictive strength with preoperative PSA and Gleason score. Patients and Methods. The study evaluated 244 patients with localized disease who underwent an open retropubic radical prostatectomy between February 20...
متن کاملTherapeutic options for a rising PSA after radical prostatectomy.
INTRODUCTION Radical prostatectomy is an effective primary treatment for clinically localized prostate cancer. While many patients are cured of their disease after surgery, there are still a significant proportion of men who will develop a biochemical recurrence (BCR). In this review, we detail existing treatment algorithms for this group of patients as well as future therapies that show great ...
متن کاملGleason score as predictor of clinicopathologic findings and biochemical (PSA) progression following radical prostatectomy.
OBJECTIVE There is evidence showing that Gleason grading of prostatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most powerful predictors of biological behavior and one of the most influential factors used to determine treatment for prostate cancer. The aim of the current study was to compare the Gleason score for needle biopsy to the Gleason score for the correspondent surgical specimen, find any possible d...
متن کاملPredicting Prostate Cancer Recurrence After Radical Prostatectomy.
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer prognosis is variable, and management decisions involve balancing patients' risks of recurrence and recurrence-free death. Moreover, the roles of body mass index (BMI) and race in risk of recurrence are controversial [1,2]. To address these issues, we developed and cross-validated RAPS (Risks After Prostate Surgery), a personal prediction model for biochemical recurre...
