Abstract: Objective To validate the Partin table 1997,2001 and 2007 for their accuracy in predicting pathologic stage in Chinese prostate cancer patients.Methods From January 1997 to June 2007,109 consecutive patients with clinically localized prostate carcinoma underwent open retropubic or laparoscopic radical prostatectomies and met all inclusion criteria well enrolled.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analysis was performed tO test the predictive accuracy of organ confined disease (0CD),extraprostatic extension(EPE),seminal vesicle involvement(SVI)and lymph node involvement(LNI). Results OCD,EPE,SVl and LNl were noted in 70%,17%,13%and 0%of cases respectively.The area under curve(AUC)of ROC for Partin table 1997 was 0.727,0.654 and 0.811for 0CD.EPE and SVl respectively,and was 0.693,0.633 and 0.835 for Partin table 2001 and 0.669.0.611 and 0.778 for Partin table 2007.Conclusions Partin tables 1997,2001 and 2007 are able to accurately predict the pathologic feature of seminal vesicle involvement.However,only Partin table 1997 can more accurately predict organ confined disease in this external validation for Chinese patients.
