Survival benefit of radical prostatectomy in lymph node–positive patients with prostate cancer
J Engel, PJ Bastian, H Baur, V Beer, C Chaussy… - European urology, 2010 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Positive lymph node (LN) status is considered a systemic disease state. In
prostate cancer, LN-positive diagnosis during pelvic LN dissection (PLND) potentially leads …
