Microvascular invasion is an independent prognostic factor in patients with prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy.
OBJECTIVE Current published data regarding the prognostic value of microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) have yielded mixed results. Furthermore, most important series had surgical procedures performed by multiple surgeons and surgical specimens analyzed by multiple pathologists. We determined the relation of MVI with other pathologic features and whether this find...
متن کاملEvaluation of Plasma Interleukin-8 Concentration in Patients with Prostate Cancer and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia
Background: Prostate specific antigen (PSA) has been used as a screening test for the early detection of prostate cancer (PC) for many years. Although the introduction of PSA test led to a considerable increase in reported prostate cancer cases, there is still some controversy over the sensitivity and specificity of this marker in distinguishing PC patients from those with benign prostate hyper...
متن کاملPretreatment prostate specific antigen doubling time as prognostic factor in prostate cancer patients
Despite the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum level commonly uses as tumor marker in diagnosis of prostate cancer, it seems that PSA doubling time (PSADT) could be more useful indicator of tumor behavior and of prognosis for patients. The results of hormone and radiation therapy were evaluated for 912 prostate cancer having at least 2 PSA tests before the treatment was started. Clustering p...
متن کاملSerum interleukin 6 as a prognostic factor in patients with prostate cancer.
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the prognostic significance of the serum levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in patients with prostate cancer. Serum IL-6 levels were measured in 74 patients with prostate cancer. The tumor was stage B in 23 patients, stage C in 14 patients, and stage D in 37 patients. Prognostic significance of tumor histology, performance status (PS), bone metastasis, s...
متن کاملPrognostic factors influencing prostate cancer-specific survival in non-castrate patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND In non-castrate prostate cancer (PCa), the prognostic value of the number of metastases on prostate cancer-specific survival (PCSS) is not well studied. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 1,206 patients, referred for radiotherapy of the prostate (bed) following diagnosis of PCa. Distant metastases (nodal, skeletal, and/or visceral) developed in 121 patients ...
