In the patient age group of ≥70 years, the five- and ten-year relapse-free survival rates were 76.4 and 70 %, respectively. In that of < 70 years, those were 79.1 and 75.4 % (p = 0.76). The five- and ten-year overall survival rates were 88.5 and 75.4 % in the patients aged ...
To examine biochemical progression-free survival (PFS) rates as a function of preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in patients with clinical Stage T1c prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy. Controversy exists about whether performing prostate biopsies for PSA levels in the 2.6 to ...
Biochemical progression-free survival rates were 77.4% after 5, 53.0% after 10 and 33.7% after 15 years. Since three-quarters of our patients were likely not to die of prostate cancer within the 10 years after surgery despite histological evidence of lymph node metastases, radical prostatectomy ...
Survival after radical prostatectomy versus?radiation therapy in clinical node‐positive prostate cancer Aim To compare overall mortality (OM), cancer‐specific mortality (CSM), and other cause mortality (OCM) rates between radical prostatectomy (RP) versus ra...

Methods The study included 411 patients treated with radical prostatectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection for prostate cancer with lymph node metastases at 10 tertiary care centers between 1995 and 2014. Kaplan-Meier analyses were used to assess cancer-specific mortality-free survival rates ...
1,975 men with high-risk prostate cancer (PSA ≥20 ng/ml, Gleason ≥8 on biopsy or cT stage ≥2) underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy plus pelvic lymphadenectomy. After a mean follow-up of 24.9 months (3–120 months), the rates of biochemical recurrence-free survival, continence and...
The generalizability of currently available estimates of survival after radical prostatectomy is theoretically limited. To obtain generalizable estimates of survival after radical prostatectomy. A population-based retrospective cohort study. Nine regions of the United States. Patients who were diagnosed with ...
Early radical prostatectomy improves disease-specific but not overall survival.This article discusses research done on the effectiveness of radical prostatectomy as compared with watchful waiting in patients with early prostate cancer. It references the study "A Randomized Trial Comparing Radical ...
Objective: The detrimental effect of unmarried marital status on stage and survival has been confirmed in several malignancies. We set to test whether this applied to patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (PCa) treated with radical prostatectomy (RP). Methods: We identified 163,697 non-metastatic...
Objective: Perineural invasion (PNI) is detected in almost 20% of prostate biopsies and has been related to worse prognostic factors in radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens and lower disease-free survival rates. The aim of this study was to evaluate the importance of PNI during periods of extend...
