“…26 More recent studies, however, have indicated that careful selection of donors with less invasive cancers has since reduced the overall risk of donor-derived cancer to an estimated 0.06%. 10,11 Malignancy subtype and cancer-free period are additional considerations in donor selection criteria. Most malignancies in this analysis were skin and CNS cancers, followed by genitourinary and other cancers, which aligns with previous research findings.…”

“…If PSA level is >10ng/ml, the risk of metastatic lymph nodes remains less than 20% for clinical stage T1 and T2a whatever Gleason score, but reaches over 20% for T2b (Gleason score 3+4) and 40% for T2c with Gleason score 8 to 10. 31,35 PSA level is up to 20 ng/ml for tumours that are T2b with Gleason score 6, have a positive lymph node risk of 6%. If PSA level is over 20 ng/ml, the positive lymph node risk is over 20% for T2b with Gleason score over 9 or for T3 with Gleason score over 7.…”

“…However practically this is not always available. 11,32,33,35 Micro metastatic prostate disease, in pelvic lymph nodes or blood may be missed by routine microscopic examination and so may be another consideration to take into account when discussing possible donors. 33 However there seems to be no significant difference in prognostic outcomes between patients diagnosed with histopathology sections and those diagnosed with micro metastases.…”
