Factors predicting Gleason score 6 upgrading after radical prostatectomy
OBJECTIVES Prostate cancer Gleason score 6 is the most common score detected on prostatic biopsy. We analyzed the clinical parameters that predict the likelihood of Gleason score upgrading after radical prostatectomy. METHODS The study population consisted of 241 patients who underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy between Feb 2002 and Dec 2007 for Gleason score 6 adenocarcinoma. The influ...
متن کاملOncologic Outcomes of Patients With Gleason Score 7 and Tertiary Gleason Pattern 5 After Radical Prostatectomy
PURPOSE We evaluated oncologic outcomes following radical prostatectomy (RP) in patients with a Gleason score (GS) of 7 with tertiary Gleason pattern 5 (TGP5). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 310 patients who underwent RP from 2005 to 2010. Twenty-four patients who received neoadjuvant or adjuvant antiandrogen deprivation or radiation therapy were excl...
متن کامل[Impact of Gleason score on biochemical recurrence free survival after radical prostatectomy with positive surgical margins].
PURPOSE Research of predictive factors of biochemical recurrence to guide the establishment of an adjuvant treatment after radical prostatectomy for cancer with positive surgical margins. METHODOLOGY A retrospective cohort of 1577 afro-caribbean patients undergoing radical prostatectomy operated between 1st January 2000 and 1st July 2013 was analyzed. In this cohort, 406 patients had positive...
متن کامل[Evidence of the radical prostatectomy Gleason score in the biopsy Gleason score].
INTRODUCTION The Gleason score (Gs) for prostatic cancer has a good prognosis correlation after radical prostatectomy, for this reason its correlation with the Gs in the biopsy can be useful. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred fifteen patients with blind evaluation among three pathologists of their Gs in biopsy and in the corresponding radical prostatectomy specimen are presented. RESULTS The...
متن کاملA pathological reassessment of organ-confined, Gleason score 6 prostatic adenocarcinomas that progress after radical prostatectomy.
Prior studies of radical prostatectomies have reported a small percentage of men with biochemical progression after radical prostatectomy showing organ-confined, Gleason Score 6. One might predict that this should virtually never occur. We identified 2551 (1983-2005) radical prostatectomies coded by the urologists at our institution as pathologically organ-confined, Gleason score 6 cancer with ...
