Comprehensive analysis of predictive factors for upstaging in intraprostatic cancer after radical prostatectomy: Different patterns of spread exist in lesions at different locations
Abstract:BackgroundAccurate assessment of the clinical staging is crucial for determining the need for radical prostatectomy (RP) in prostate cancer (PCa). However, the current methods for PCa staging may yield incorrect results. This study aimed to comprehensively analyze independent predictors of postoperative upstaging of intraprostatic cancer.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of data from intraprostatic cancer patients who underwent radical surgery between March 2019 and December 2022. Intraprostatic can… Show more
