Increasing the number of biopsy cores improves the concordance of biopsy Gleason score to prostatectomy Gleason score

BJU International, 2005
OBJECTIVE To evaluate taking more biopsy cores for predicting the radical prostatectomy (RP) Gleason score compared with the biopsy Gleason score, as although random sextant biopsies are the standard for a tissue diagnosis of prostate cancer, and taking more biopsies increases the detection rate, it is uncertain

Comparison of Biochemical Relapse-Free Survival Between Primary Gleason Score 3 and Primary Gleason Score 4 for Biopsy Gleason Score 7 Prostate Cancer

International Journal of Radiation Oncology Biology Physics, 2009
To determine whether the primary grade (PG) of biopsy Gleason score (GS) 7 prostate cancer (CaP) was predictive for biochemical relapse-free survival (bRFS). Most of the present data regarding the PG of GS7 CaP refer to surgical specimens. Our goal was to determine whether the biopsy GS used at the time of medical decision making predicted for the ...

The gleason score shift: score four and seven years ago

International Journal of Radiation Oncology Biology Physics, 2003
There is some evidence that Gleason scores (GS) have shifted over time, although documentation of the extent to which this has occurred and its clinical significance is sparse.Three types of analyses were performed to characterize the GS shift. First, the time-related changes in GS, T-stage category, and PSA for all 983 patients treated with conformal ...

Prognostic significance of Gleason pattern in patients with Gleason score 7 prostate carcinoma

Cancer, 2003
AbstractBACKGROUNDIn the current study, the authors sought to further stratify the prognosis of patients with Gleason score (GS) 7 prostate carcinoma. They assessed the influence on outcome of a predominant poorly differentiated Gleason pattern (primary Gleason pattern [GP] 4) and/or a coincident small focus of poorly differentiated tumor of higher ...

Borderline Gleason scores: communication is the key

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2020
The biopsy Gleason score (GS) is a critical component of patient management having been demonstrated to be an excellent predictor of patient outcome.1 2 While the application of Gleason grading is generally straightforward, grading is subject to significant interobserver variation3 and divergent opinions may confuse clinicians and patients ...

[Evidence of the radical prostatectomy Gleason score in the biopsy Gleason score].

Actas urologicas espanolas, 2004
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.Two hundred fifteen patients with blind evaluation among three pathologists of their Gs in biopsy and in the corresponding radical prostatectomy specimen are presented.The ...

The influence of ethnicity on Gleason score

Journal of Men's Health, 2008
Abstract Background: To determine if Gleason score exhibits any significant variation between African-Americans and Caucasian men with prostate cancer. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study. Inclusion required diagnosis of prostate cancer and reporting it to the TriHealth tumor registry from 1995–2005.

Weighted Gleason scores do not outperform standard clinical Gleason scores.

The Canadian journal of urology, 2016
Predicting patient survival rates following radical prostatectomy remains an area of clinical interest. We compared the ability of standard clinical Gleason scores and alternative 'weighted' Gleason scores to predict pathology, margin status and recurrence in prostate cancer.Patients who underwent robotic radical prostatectomy performed by a single ...

Prognostic value of the Gleason score in prostate cancer

BJU International, 2002
Objective To investigate the prognostic value of the Gleason score in prostate cancer. Patients and methods A consecutive series of 305 men with prostate cancer diagnosed at transurethral resection (1975–1990) and with no curative ...
