Abstract

Objective: In this study, patients hormonally evaluated before prostate needle biopsy were considered among the ones who underwent radical prostatectomy (RRP) due to prostate adenocarcinoma and had locally advanced pathological stage (T3). The relationship between pathology results and cancer prognosis with hormonal data was investigated in these patients.
