Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical and pathological features of patients with prostate cancer who were diagnosed by single positive core biopsy and treated by radical prostatectomy (RP).Methods Between July 2012 and June 2016,164 patients with prostate cancer diagnosed by single positive core biopsy underwent RP.The mean age was 66.3 years old (ranged 41-82 years old),and the mean PSA level was 12.3 ng/ml (ranged 0.6-59.5 ng/ml).The biopsy Gleason score showed 6 scores in 113 cases,3 + 4 =7 scores in 21 cases,4 + 3 =7 scores in 18 cases,≥8 scores in 12 cases.Clinical stage was cT1 in 71 cases,cT2 in 92 cases,and cT3 in 1 case.The patients were divided into subgroups according to age,preoperative PSA level,biopsy Gleason score and clinical stage,and the pathological results were compared among these subgroups.Results Of the 164 patients,67 cases had Gleason score ≤ 6,52 cases Gleason score 3 + 4 =7,24 case Gleason score 4 + 3 =7,and 11 cases Gleason score ≥ 8.Ten patients had pT0 disease according to the RP specimen,3 had extraprostatic extensions,5 had seminal vesicle invasions,and 24 had positive surgical margins.Compared to the biopsy,the Gleason score of RP specimens was higher in 53 cases,concordant in 77 cases,and lower in 24 cases.There was no significant difference in the postoperative pathological features between the age group ＜ 70 years and the group ≥ 70 years.Compared with PSA ＜ 10 ng/ml,the likelihood of postoperative Gleason score ＞ 7 was significantly increased in PSA ≥10 ng/ml group [41.4％ (36/87) vs.66.2％ (51/77),P＜0.05].When the biopsy Gleason score was divided into four groups (6,3 + 4 =7,4 + 3 =7,≥ 8),there were significant differences in postoperative pathological stages among the four groups (P ＜ 0.05),and the patients with biopsy Gleason score 6 were more likely to have no residual cancer (stage T0) when compared with other Gleason scores [8.8％ (10/113) vs.0,P =0.09].The probability of no residual cancer in clinical T1 stage patients was significantly higher than that in T2 stage [11.3％ (8/71) vs.2.8％ (2/92),P =0.02],while the probability of Gleason score upgrading was significantly lower [23.9％ (17/71) vs.39.1％ (36/92),P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Most single core prostate cancer have clinically significant disease.The treatment plan must be evaluated individually for patients with single core prostate cancer.
