A Novel Predictor Tool of Biochemical Recurrence after Radical Prostatectomy Based on a Five-MicroRNA Tissue Signature [PDF]
Within five to ten years after radical prostatectomy (RP), approximately 15-34% of prostate cancer (PCa) patients experience biochemical recurrence (BCR), which is defined as recurrence of serum levels of prostate-specific antigen >0.2 µg/L, indicating ...

Prognostic Implications of Modified Gleason Score and Gleason Grade Group in Histopathologic Study of Prostatic Adenocarcinoma: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: The Gleason Score (GS) is the most powerful prognostic indicator in prostatic carcinoma. The assignment of the GS is based on the histopathologic patterns of prostatic adenocarcinoma, which are classified according to the Gleason Pattern ...

A Family History of Lethal Prostate Cancer and Risk of Aggressive Prostate Cancer in Patients Undergoing Radical Prostatectomy. [PDF]
We investigated whether a family history of lethal prostate cancer (PCa) was associated with high-risk disease or biochemical recurrence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy. A cohort of radical prostatectomy patients was stratified into men with

Prostatectomy as a treatment for canine prostate cancer: a literature review [PDF]
Canine prostate cancer is a relatively rare condition with a poor prognosis. Both total and partial prostatectomy have been described as treatment strategies for this condition. Based on the available literature, it is clear that prostatectomy is usually
