Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of salvage radical prostatectomy for men with recurrent prostate cancer (PCa) after radiotherapy.Method Ten pathologically confirmed PCa patients who relapsed after radiotherapy from Jan.2008 to Dec.2013 were retrospectively reviewed.The mean age was (64.7 ±3.7) years,with range from 56 to 72 year.Local recurrence was confirmed by retransrectal biopsy.All patients had increased PSA and/or lower urinary tract symptoms.Pelvis MRI and bone scan were performed to detect lymph node involvement and bone metastasis.All patients received radical prostatectomy with standard pelvic lymphadenectomy.Seven received open surgery (open group),three patients underwent laparoscopic surgery (laparoscopic group).Postoperative complication and PSA level were compared.Results Salvage radical prostatectomies with lymph node dissection were performed in all patients without major complications.The mean operation time of open group versus laparoscopic group were (225 ± 57)min vs.(210 ± 80)min and the mean blood loss was (275 ± 49)ml vs.(260 ± 93) ml,both of which were with no significant difference (P > 0.05).The average length of stay was (14 ± 4) vs.(8 ± 2) day with significant difference (P < 0.05).No rectal injury was observed.Two (20%) patients were with positive margin,and three (30%) patients had postoperative complications,including one case of deep vein thrombosis,one case of incision infection and and one case of anastomotic leakage.After a mean of 20.6 months'follow-up,two patients (25%) reached biochemical recurrence.Conclusion Both open and laparoscopic salvage radical prostatectomies after radiotherapy failure were feasible.Largescaled prospective studies were needed to verify the long-term effectiveness.
