Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to investigate pathological lymph node involvement in selected patients and the relationship of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression-free survival rates between patients with and without lymph node involvement on preoperative conventional radiologic imaging. Limited data is available about local treatment outcomes in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) having clinical lymph node involvement.
