Gleason score at the margin can predict biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy, in addition to preoperative PSA and surgical margin status

Abstract: There is wide consensus that ongoing deforestation contributes to global warming and poses a threat to species diversity. Less understood is whether the practice of creating plantations might also erode genetic diversity and undermine the genetic structure of tree populations. We tested these hypotheses in natural and planted populations of Pinus brutia Ten. subsp. brutia and Cupressus sempervirens L. var. horizontalis (Mill.), 2 important forestry species in the Mediterranean region. We used plant material fr… Show more

“…Although a number of studies over the last decade have examined the impact of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) as a predictor of biochemical recurrence (BCR), its importance has been debated, with a recent systematic review unable to definitively establish LVI as an independent predictor of BCR after prostatectomy . A number of subsequent studies that address this question, however, have established LVI as being an important, independent predictor of disease recurrence and, in the context of other clinical and pathological variables, LVI status can assist in establishing the postoperative management of these patients.…”

“…In addition, prostatectomy Gleason scores were similar for both groups. Higher preoperative PSA levels (>10 ng/mL) may have an effect on PSM formation, but our groups had no difference in PSA levels (14). We included operations performed by the same person because PSM rates can differ among surgeons.…”
