Predictive model using prostate MRI findings can predict candidates for nerve sparing radical prostatectomy among low-intermediate risk prostate cancer patients.

ABSTRACT: Background:In order to improve postoperative functional outcome, including urinary continence and erectile function, nerve sparing surgery is recommended for patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (PCa). However, due to poor diagnosis accuracy at the preoperative stage, upstaging occurs in a considerable proportion of patients. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2 (PI-RADS v2) have recently shown excellent performance in diagnosis and staging of PCa. The aim of this study was to develop a predictive model based on PI-RADS v2 for postoperative upstaging in patients with low-intermediate risk PCa. Methods:The medical records of 314 patients with low-intermediate risk PCa [prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level ?20 ng/mL, Gleason score (GS) <8, and clinical stage < T3] who underwent preoperative mpMRI and radical prostatectomy in the Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital between January 2012 and July 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. Clinicopathological characteristics were collected. All MRI reports were done at our institution as part of routine clinical practice before prostate biopsy and there was no re-reporting occurred. Using PI-RADS v2, the mpMRI results were assigned to three groups: "negative", "suspicious", and "positive". Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess factors associated with postoperative pathological upstaging, defined as the presence of pT3 at final pathology. A regression coef?cient based model for predicting postoperative upstaging was constructed and internally validated using 1,000 bootstrap resamples. The performance of the model was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). With the optimal cutoff point the performance of the model was assessed through analysis of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value. Results:Upstaging was observed in 119 (37.9%) patients. The univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that PSA density, biopsy Gleason grade group (GGG), and mpMRI findings were significantly independent predictors for postoperative upstaging (all P<0.05). A predictive model showing very favorable calibration characteristics and higher accuracy than the single variables was constructed (AUC =0.74; P<0.001). At the optimal cutoff point, the model demonstrated a sensitivity and negative predictive value of 87.4% and 87.0%, respectively. Conclusions:PI-RADS v2 assessment proved to be one of the most valuable predictors for postoperative upstaging in patients with low-intermediate risk PCa. The predictive model, based on PI-RADS v2 assessment, PSA density, and biopsy GGG, may help to select suitable candidates for nerve sparing radical prostatectomy among patients with low-intermediate risk PCa.

Project description:IntroductionSolitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) of the prostate are extremely rare. We report on a 60-year-old man who was diagnosed with prostatic SFT through transurethral resection (TUR) of the prostate, and we provide a narrative literature review to put the case into perspective. We looked into multiple databases for articles published before June 2022.Case reportA 60-year-old man without comorbidities presented with acute urinary retention and significant macrohematuria. Due to recurrent bladder tamponades and relevant blood loss despite irrigation, an emergency endoscopic transurethral evaluation was initiated. Intraoperatively, diffuse venous hemorrhage from prostatic vessels around the bladder neck was detected, as well as significant hemorrhage from a grossly enlarged and tumor-suspicious prostate middle lobe. Within the framework of extensive bipolar coagulation, parts of the suspicious middle lobe were removed via TUR. The final histopathology report showed incompletely resected SFT of the prostate. Due to the extremely rare SFT diagnosis, the case was discussed in an interdisciplinary tumor board and further diagnostic workup, including thoracoabdominal computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis, was performed, which revealed no secondary tumors or signs of metastasis. According to the tumor board recommendation, robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) with bilateral nerve sparing was performed, supported by intraoperative frozen section. The final histopathology confirmed the SFT that had developed from the transition zone. The SFT was resected with negative frozen section result and negative surgical margins (R0). No intra- and perioperative complications occurred, and in the short-term follow-up, the patient presented in excellent general status with full continence. From 1997 to June 2022, we identified a total of 12 publications reporting on treatment for prostatic SFT (11 case reports and 2 patient series), with none performing bilateral nerve sparing, frozen section, or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. No common survival endpoints were accessible.ConclusionThis case demonstrates the exceedingly rare case of SFT of the prostate, which has been described in the literature in only 23 men worldwide. Here, we were the first to demonstrate the feasibility of bilateral nerve-sparing RARP supported by frozen section. A systematic review was not possible due to the lack of common endpoints.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the impact of intra-operative neurovascular structure-adjacent frozen-section examination (NeuroSAFE) on the rate of nerve-sparing surgery (NSS) and oncological outcome in a large radical prostatectomy (RP) cohort.Patients and methodsBetween January 2016 and December 2020, 1756 prostate cancer patients underwent robot-assisted RP, of whom 959 (55%) underwent this with NeuroSAFE and 797 (45%) without (control cohort). In cases where NeuroSAFE showed tumour in the margin, a secondary resection was performed. The effect of NeuroSAFE on NSS and positive surgical margin (PSM) status was analysed using logistic regression. Cox regression was used to identify predictors of biochemical recurrence-free survival (BCRFS).Results and limitationsPatients in the NeuroSAFE cohort had a higher tumour grade (P < 0.001) and clinical stage (P < 0.001) than those in the control cohort. NeuroSAFE enabled more frequent NSS for both pT2 (93% vs 76%; P < 0.001) and pT3 disease (83% vs 55%; P < 0.001). In adjusted analysis, NeuroSAFE resulted in more frequent unilateral (odds ratio [OR] 3.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.90-5.30; P < 0.001) and bilateral (OR 5.22, 95% CI 3.90-6.98; P < 0.001) NSS. While the PSM rate decreased from 51% to 42% in patients with pT3 stage disease (P = 0.031), NeuroSAFE was not an independent predictor of PSM status (OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.68-1.06; P = 0.2) in the entire cohort. Patients who underwent NeuroSAFE had better BCRFS compared to the control cohort (hazard ratio 0.62, 95% CI 0.45-0.84; P = 0.002). This study is limited by its comparison with a historical cohort and lack of functional outcomes.ConclusionsNeuroSAFE enables more unilateral and bilateral NSS without negatively affecting surgical margin status and biochemical recurrence. This validation study provides a comprehensive overview of the implementation, evaluation and intra-operative decision making associated with NeuroSAFE in clinical practice.
