The use of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measurement as a method for early detection of prostate cancer has increased the detection of clinically and pathologically localized prostate cancer. Clinical stage T1c was introduced to describe cancers discovered on prostate biopsy as a result of an abnormal serum PSA level without a palpable prostatic abnormality on digital rectal examination. The majority of men with stage T1c tumors have significant disease warranting treatment. We report the results of anatomic radical retropubic prostatectomy as therapy for PSA-detected stage T1c prostate cancer in 340 men treated at a single institution. In all, 17 men (5%) have had a recurrence with 2.3 ± 1.2 years of follow-up, 15 of whom have experienced an isolated biochemical PSA recurrence only. The overall actuarial biochemical PSA recurrence-free rate at 6 years is 87%, with pathologic stage being the best single indicator of the likelihood of progression. Although a longer period of follow-up is needed, this interim report suggests that these men can be cured by surgery at rates equal to or better than those of previously reported radical prostatectomy series.Funding was provided by National Cancer Institute SPORE grant CA 58236 相似文献

Long-term outcome following radical prostatectomy in men with clinical stage T3 prostate cancer 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
PURPOSE: We evaluated patients at our institution who underwent radical prostatectomy for clinical stage T3 prostate cancer to determine their long-term clinical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed our prospective surgical database and identified 176 men who underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy for clinical stage T3 prostate cancer from 1983 to 2003. Clinical and pathological data were reviewed and evaluated in a Cox proportional hazards model to determine preoperative predictors of biochemical recurrence. Clinical progression following biochemical recurrence was evaluated and clinical failure was defined as the development of clinical metastases or progression to hormone refractory prostate cancer. RESULTS: Of the 176 patients with cT3 prostate cancer 64 (36%) received neoadjuvant hormonal therapy. At a mean followup of 6.4 years 84 (48%) patients had disease recurrence with a median time to biochemical recurrence of 4.6 years. The actuarial 10-year probability of freedom from recurrence was 44%. On multivariate analysis biopsy Gleason score, pretreatment serum prostate specific antigen and year of surgery were independent predictors of biochemical recurrence. Neoadjuvant hormonal therapy was not a significant predictor of biochemical recurrence. Following biochemical recurrence clinical failure developed in 30 of 84 (36%) men with a median time of 11 years. Overall the 5, 10 and 15-year probabilities of death from prostate cancer were 6%, 15% and 24%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: More than half (52%) of our patients remained free of disease recurrence following radical prostatectomy. In our series neoadjuvant hormonal therapy offered no advantage with respect to disease recurrence. Radical prostatectomy remains an integral component in the treatment of select patients with clinical stage T3 prostate cancer. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Consensus recommendations for the identification and treatment of men whose apparent organ confined prostate cancer has high risk features are lacking. Despite ongoing refinements in surgical technique and improvements in morbidity and functional outcomes, the tradition of steering high-risk patients away from radical prostatectomy (RP) remains steadfast. METHODS: We performed a medical literature search in English using MEDLINE/PubMed that addressed high risk prostate cancer. We analyzed the literature with respect to the historical evolution of this concept, current risk stratification schemes and treatment guidelines and related short and long term outcomes following RP. RESULTS: Contemporary evidence suggest that patients classified with high-risk prostate cancer by commonly used definitions do not have a uniformly poor prognosis after RP. Many cancers categorized clinically as high risk are actually pathologically confined to the prostate, and most men with such cancers who undergo RP are alive and free of additional therapy long after surgery. RP in the high-risk setting appears to be associated with a similar morbidity as in lower-risk patients. CONCLUSION: Men with clinically localized high-risk prostate cancer should not be categorically disqualified from local definitive therapy with RP. With careful attention to surgical technique, cancer control rates should improve further, and adverse effects on quality of life after RP should continue to decrease. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The considerations in choosing a treatment for prostate cancer are potential for cure, acute toxicity, long-term morbidity, quality of life, and direct and indirect costs. The classic options are radical prostatectomy, external-beam radiation, and watchful waiting. During the last decade, technological advances have fostered another: brachytherapy. METHODS: This article compares brachytherapy and radical prostatectomy in terms of cancer control, complications, and cost using series from medical centers that have pioneered and advocated particular procedures. RESULTS: In the surgical series from Johns Hopkins, the 7-year success rate (no PSA >0.2 ng/mL) of anatomic radical prostatectomy was 97.8% in patients with stage T(2c) or lower disease and a Gleason score of < or =6. In the brachytherapy series from Seattle, the 7-year success rate (PSA < or =0.5 ng/mL) was 79%. Postoperatively, 68% of the patients who were potent preoperatively maintained erectile function, and 92% were fully continent. Urethral toxicity is slightly more common in patients treated by brachytherapy, but in the authors' series, no patient remained incontinent after 6 months. Some patients became impotent during follow-up. The cost of brachytherapy ($16,200) is less than that of ($27,000), although the difference may be reduced by the use of neoadjuvant hormonal therapy with the former. CONCLUSION: Patients receiving brachytherapy appear to have a slightly higher rate of disease progression. The side effects generally are acceptable and may be less severe than those of surgery. Further follow-up data are needed to define the roles of these two treatments for early-stage prostate cancer. 相似文献

We evaluated the results of a treatment protocol that consisted of neoadjuvant hormonal therapy followed by radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) for clinical stage T3 (cT3) prostate cancer. Sixty-six patients with cT3 prostate cancer underwent staging procedures that included metastatic work-up and evaluation under anesthesia. Neoadjuvant hormonal treatment was given for 3 to 6 months, followed by re-evaluation under anesthesia. Patients considered to have a resectable prostate following neoadjuvant treatment underwent operation. Disease-free survival [prostate-specific antigen (PSA) < 0.1 ng/ml] was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method for cT3 patients and for a group of patients with clinical stage 1 and 2 disease (cT1-2), who underwent RRP without neoadjuvant hormonal therapy. Patients with pT3 disease in both groups received early adjuvant radiation treatment. Patients in the cT3 group who were not clinically downstaged were treated with radiation. Patients with positive lymph nodes continued hormonal therapy. The pretreatment PSA for the cT3 group was 43.6 ± 55.6 ng/ml, and 10.64 ± 7.18 ng/ml for the cT1-2 group (p < 0.05). Of 66 cT3 patients, 53 (80%) were clinically downstaged and operated on and 47 (71%) underwent RRP. At 36 months, there was no significant difference in the PSA relapse rate between these two groups; both had significantly lower rates than did patients in the cT3 without RRP. At 48 months, 79% (21 patients) of the patients in the cT3-RRP group were disease free compared with 50% of those in the cT3 without RRP (4 patients). Neoadjuvant hormonal therapy for stage cT3 prostate cancer selects patients whose cancer can be controlled by RRP for an extended period of time. 相似文献

The increasing length of survival of organ transplant recipients necessitates careful attention to the potential neoplastic complications of life-long immunosuppressive therapy. Due to the rarity of prostate cancer after liver transplantation there are no guidelines for its management. In our case, prostate biopsy revealed prostate cancer in a 59-year-old man after an uncomplicated 5-year post-transplant course. After meticulous lymph node dissection, we performed radical retropubic prostatectomy. The postoperative period was uneventful and the prostate-specific antigen value 18 months after surgery was <0.1 ng/ml. We believe that radical retropubic prostatectomy is technically feasible in patients after liver transplantation and should be offered as a treatment option for every patient with good graft function. 相似文献

Radical prostatectomy for stage D1 prostate cancer. Prognostic variables and results of treatment 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Surgical extirpation of the primary tumor together with the involved regional nodes has been considered ineffective treatment for locally disseminated prostatic carcinoma. We retrospectively reviewed our experience with 42 patients with Stage D1 disease who underwent radical prostatectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy and who had a follow-up of one to thirteen years (mean 5 years). The following variables affecting survival and tumor progression were analyzed: (1) tumor grade and local extent; (2) number of positive lymph nodes, and (3) adjuvant therapy. The overall five- and ten-year survival was 79.5 per cent and 28 per cent compared with the expected survival of an age-matched control group of 88 per cent and 28 per cent, respectively. The degree of tumor differentiation had no effect on prognosis, but local tumor bulk and the number of involved lymph nodes significantly changed the disease progression and survival rate. Patients with low local tumor bulk and one positive node survived as long as the age-matched male population group. Our data suggest that radical prostatectomy may represent a valuable treatment in selected patients with Stage D1 prostate carcinoma. 相似文献

Objectives: To determine the biochemical outcome following radical prostatectomy alone in patients with high-risk prostate cancer.
Methods: Between January 2002 and August 2007, 252 patients underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy. Those who received neoadjuvant hormone therapy were excluded from this analysis. Based on pre-operative data, we stratified the patients into low, intermediate, and high-risk groups according to the risk criteria of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network in 2003, respectively. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) failure was defined as any detectable PSA level higher than 0.2 ng/mL.
Results: The PSA failure-free survival rate for the high-risk group ( n = 46) was 64.5% after a median follow-up period of 39 months. Among patients with high-risk disease, none with pathologically organ-confined cancer ( n = 19) and a negative surgical margin had PSA failure. The PSA failure-free rate in patients with non organ-confined cancer ( n = 27) was 39.5%. Among the pretreatment variables, a positive biopsy core percentage (the number of positive biopsy cores/total biopsy core) ≥30 was a significant independent predictor of extra prostatic extension.
Conclusions: Radical prostatectomy is feasible in high-risk prostate cancer patients, only if they have a pathologically organ-confined disease. 相似文献

Radical prostatectomy was performed in 14 patients following local failure of radiation therapy for adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Ten patients were treated with external beam and 4 with interstitial radiation. The interval from beginning radiation therapy to biopsy-proved residual or recurrent disease was twenty-four to one hundred fourteen months (mean 61 months). Ten patients had significant anterior and lateral fibrosis. Five patients had loss of tissue planes between the prostate and rectum, however, no rectal injuries occurred. Estimated blood loss was 300-8,000 cc (median 1,000 cc). Operative time was one hundred ten to three hundred seventy-five minutes (median 185 minutes). Significant late complications are impotence (100%) and incontinence (55%). Tumor volume was 1.1-27.2 cc (mean 11.1 cc). Seven patients had seminal vesicle involvement, 9 had level III capsule penetration, and 6 had positive surgical margins. Follow-up ranges from one to fifty-two months (median 18 months). Currently, 6 patients are clinically without disease and have serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) of 0.0 ng/mL. Four patients have no clinical evidence of disease but do have detectable serum PSA, and 4 patients have evidence of metastatic bone disease on bone scan with elevated serum PSA levels. Radical prostatectomy following radiation therapy has no greater immediate morbidity or mortality compared with radical prostatectomy without prior irradiation and takes only slightly longer to perform. However, there is a marked increased risk of impotence and incontinence. More patients followed for a longer time are needed to assess the benefit of radical prostatectomy on survival of patients who fail radiation therapy. 相似文献

To examine the role of nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy in patients with clinical stage B2 prostate cancer we reviewed the first 77 such patients in our series since we adopted the nerve-sparing technique. A total of 47 patients (61%) underwent bilateral and 26 (34%) underwent unilateral nerve-sparing prostatectomy, while in 4 (5%) both neurovascular bundles were resected. Among the patients followed for 12 months 27 of 41 (66%) treated with bilateral and 7 of 19 (37%) treated with unilateral nerve-sparing prostatectomy had potency preserved. With the strict clinicopathological criteria of organ-confined tumor, that is intracapsular tumor with negative surgical margins and undetectable postoperative prostate specific antigen levels, complete tumor excision was achieved in 17 patients (36%) treated with bilateral and 7 of 26 (27%) treated with unilateral nerve-sparing prostatectomy. All patients in whom both neurovascular bundles were resected had pathological stage C or D1 disease. Of the 24 patients who had complete tumor excision by the strict criteria only 15 (19.5% of the 77 preoperatively potent patients) had potency preserved. Of these patients 19 had microscopically positive margins without seminal vesicle invasion (pathological stage C1) with undetectable postoperative prostate specific antigen levels. In addition, 4 patients had seminal vesicle involvement with negative surgical margins and undetectable postoperative prostate specific antigen levels. If these patients also are considered as having complete tumor excision, there was an over-all complete tumor excision rate of 61% (47 of 77), of whom 25 (32% of the 77 patients) had preservation of potency. Ten patients with clinical stage B2 tumor whose potency was preserved had histological and serological evidence of incomplete tumor excision. Of 53 patients with pathological stage C1 disease 9 (17%) had margins positive only in the regions of the neurovascular bundles. Preoperative prostate specific antigen and acid phosphatase levels, and findings on transrectal ultrasonography failed to predict accurately which patients had extracapsular tumor extension. Patients with poorly differentiated tumors and/or bulky disease on rectal examination had a higher incidence of extracapsular extension and positive margins. We conclude that in the majority of potent patients with clinical stage B2 prostate cancer not all of the goals of nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy are realized.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The frequency of malignancy grade I-III (grading system according to B?cking and Sommerkamp, 1980) and of clinical stages T0-T3 in 393 unselected prostatic carcinomas (227 punch biopsies and 166 transurethral resections) were investigated over a period of 2 years. G III carcinomas were represented most frequently in the whole material (54%) as well as in punch biopsies (62%). G I carcinomas with a favorable prognosis make up 20% of the tumors in the whole material and only 10% in punch biopsies. In contrast, 54.9% of incidental carcinomas (T0) are G I tumors, 18.6% G III carcinomas with an unfavorable prognosis. The advanced clinical stages T2 and T3 predominate in the whole material with 62.4%, compared to stages T0 and T1 comprising 37.6%. Malignancy grade and clinical stage are clearly correlated in the whole material. In incidental carcinoma, there is also a correlation between malignancy grade and histologic extension. The percentage of higher malignancy grades G II and G III increases with age. This is true for incidental carcinoma as well. The findings emphasize the prognostic significance of the grading system. 相似文献

An objective comparison is made of patients with stage C carcinoma of the prostate treated with radical prostatectomy versus more conservative measures. Morbidity from local manifestations of the tumor left in situ was markedly increased, whereas those patients afforded an extirpative operation had a much improved quality of life. 相似文献

The proper management of patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the prostate has been contentious and too frequently
based on antiquated misconceptions. Nonextirpative treatments, even when combined with neoadjuvant hormonal therapy, are inferior
to the surgical removal of the prostate for controlling local progression and distant dissemination of the cancer. Radical
prostatectomy combined with early adjunctive hormonal therapy for patients with nodal metastasis is superior to all other
forms of therapy and should be considered the standard of care. This approach provides survival rates comparable with patients
with clinically organ-confined prostate cancer. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The reported incidence and mortality of prostate cancer are higher among black than white men. Reasons for the disproportionate racial incidence of this disease are not known but most surveys suggest that increased mortality among black men is due to more advanced tumor stage at diagnosis. To determine if racial differences exist in men with similar stage disease we compared disease recurrence in black and white men who underwent radical prostatectomy for clinical stage T1-T2 prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed the records of all 257 white and 218 black men undergoing radical prostatectomy for clinical stage T1-T2 prostate cancer at the Louisiana State University Medical Center-Shreveport and the Overton-Brooks Veterans Affairs Medical Center between January 1990 and November 1998. Age, race, serum prostate specific antigen (PSA), ultrasound measured prostate volume, PSA density (PSA divided by prostate volume), histological features of the prostate biopsy, clinical stage, pathological stage, histological features of the radical prostatectomy specimen and disease recurrence were reviewed. RESULTS: Black men had significantly higher mean serum PSA and PSA density than white men (2-sided p = 0.005 and 0.03, respectively). There were no statistically significant differences by race in terms of patient age, prostate volume, clinical stage, biopsy Gleason score, pathological stage, positive pelvic lymph nodes, positive surgical margins or PSA recurrence rates. CONCLUSIONS: Black men with clinical stage T1-T2 prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy had significantly higher serum PSA and PSA density than similarly treated white men. However, race appears to have no independent impact on pathological findings or disease recurrence in men with clinically localized prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy when the effects of differences in serum PSA are controlled. 相似文献
