Abstract:BackgroundThis study evaluates the efficacy of a nomogram for predicting the pathology upgrade of apical prostate cancer (PCa).MethodsA total of 754 eligible patients were diagnosed with apical PCa through combined systematic and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐targeted prostate biopsy followed by radical prostatectomy (RP) were retrospectively identified from two hospitals (training: 754, internal validation: 182, internal–external validation: 148). A nomogram for the identification of apical tumors in high‐… Show more
