Abstract:Background: Various prediction tools have been developed to predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP), however, few of the previous prediction tools used serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) nadir after RP and maximum tumor diameter (MTD) at the same time. In this study, a nomogram incorporating MTD and PSA nadir was developed to predict BCR-free survival. Methods: 337 patients who underwent RP were retrospectively enrolled in this study. The maximum diameter of the index lesion wa… Show more
