Background We hypothesized that a cut-off in positive lymph node (LN) counts may
discriminate between cancer-specific mortality (CSM) rates in clinically localized prostate …

Purpose To assess the effect of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) extent on cancer‐
specific mortality (CSM) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients without lymph node invasion (LNI) …

Aim To determine the impact of the extent of lymph node invasion (LNI) on long-term
oncological outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP). Material and methods In this …

BACKGROUND: At radical prostatectomy (RP), pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND)
represents the most accurate staging procedure for the presence of lymph node (LN) …

Background While the diagnostic value of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) during
radical prostatectomy (RP) is undisputed, its therapeutic benefit remains a matter of debate …

Background Despite modern imaging modalities, lymph-node staging before radical
prostatectomy (RP) remains challenging in patients with prostate cancer (PCa). The visibility …

Background The presence of lymph node metastasis (LNM) at radical prostatectomy (RP) is
associated with poor outcome, and optimal treatment remains undefined. An understanding …

Objectives To determine if the number of lymph nodes (LNs) removed is an independent
predictor of biochemical recurrence (BCR) in patients without LN metastases undergoing …

OBJECTIVES: Controversy exists regarding the benefit of extended lymphadenectomy at
radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. We sought to determine whether more extended …

Simple Summary Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequent malignancy in the male
population worldwide. Men with a nodal invasion established after radical prostatectomy …
