RESUMO
PURPOSE: To evaluate MRI and histological concordance in prostate cancer (PCa) identification via mapped transperineal biopsies. METHODOLOGY: Retrospective per-lesion analysis of patients undergoing MRI and transperineal biopsy at the Valencian Institute of Oncology (2016-2024) using CAPROSIVO PCa data. Patients underwent MRI, with or without regions of interest (ROI), followed by transperineal biopsies (3-5 cores/ROI, 20-30 systematic). Sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp), negative predictive value (NPV), positive predictive value (PPV), and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated, considering PI-RADS 3 lesions as positive or negative. Gleason Grade Group (GG) > 1 defined clinically significant PCa (csPCa). RESULTS: 1817 lesions were analyzed from 1325 patients (median age 67, median PSA 6.3 ng/ml). 53% MRI were negative, GG > 1 prevalence was 38.4%. MRI-negative cases showed varying PCa rates: 57.4% negative, 30.2% GG 1, and 12.4% GG > 1. PI-RADS 3 lesions had mixed outcomes: 45.6% benign, 13.1% GG 1, and 41.3% GG > 1. 9.2% PI-RADS 4-5 lesions were negative, 9% GG 1, and 81.7% GG > 1. For PI-RADS 3 lesions considered positive, Se, Sp, NPV, PPV, and AUC were 82.9%, 75%, 87.6%, 67.4%, and 0.79 respectively. Considering PI-RADS 3 as negative yielded 64.8% Se, 91% Sp, 80.6% NPV, 81.7% PPV, and 0.78 AUC. CONCLUSION: MRI and mapped prostate biopsies exhibited moderate concordance. MRI could miss up to one in five csPCa foci and misinterpret one in three ROIs. Careful MRI interpretation is crucial for optimizing patient care.

The Mayo Adhesive Probability (MAP) score is a radiographic scoring system that predicts the presence of adherent perinephric fat (APF) during partial nephrectomies (PNs). The purpose of this systematic review is to summarize the current literature on the application of the MAP score for predicting intraoperative difficulties related to APF and complications in laparoscopic PNs. Three databases, PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane, were screened, from inception to 29 October 2023, taking into consideration the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Guidelines. All the inclusion criteria were met by eight studies. The total operative time was around two hours in most studies, while the warm ischemia time was <30 min in all studies and <20 min in four studies. Positive surgical margins, conversion and transfusion rates ranged from 0% to 6.3%, from 0% to 5.0% and from 0.7% to 7.5%, respectively. Finally, the majority of the complications were classified as Grade I-II, according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification System. The MAP score is a useful tool for predicting not only the presence of APF during laparoscopic PNs but also various intraoperative and postoperative characteristics. It was found to be significantly associated with an increased operative time, estimated blood loss and intraoperative and postoperative complication rates.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Lymph node (LN) status is one of the main prognostic factors in localized prostate cancer (CaP) patients after surgery. Examining palpable lymph nodes with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) is the most common approach in clinical practice; however, immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been reported to increase the LN detection rate. We reviewed the oncological results of patients with LN metastasis detected by IHC. METHODS: Retrospective study of CaP patients who underwent lymphadenectomy at the time of the prostatectomy. Extended lymphadenectomy was performed with complementary indocyanine green (ICG) guidance. Three groups were considered according to LN status. Definition of the pN+ group was made if LNs were detected by HE, occulted lymph node-positive (OLN+) was considered when ≥ 1 LN was identified with IHC and occulted lymph node-negative (OLN-) if no metastatic nodes were found. Oncological outcomes were reported regarding PSA kinetics, biochemical recurrence (BCR), need for secondary treatments and metastasis-free survival (MFS). RESULTS: A total of 283 patients with a median follow-up of 69 months were included in the study. Immunohistochemical assessment revealed metastatic LNs in 8.9% of patients. The rate of locally advanced disease and positive surgical margins was higher in the OLNâ¯+â¯and pNâ¯+â¯groups vs the OLN - group (P < 0.05). At the end of follow-up, 19%, 44% and 52% of patients from the OLN -, OLNâ¯+â¯and pNâ¯+â¯groups experienced BCR (P < 0.001), respectively. Additionally, 2.6%, 17% and 22% of patients developed metastatic progression from the OLN -, OLNâ¯+â¯and pN+ group (P < 0.001), respectively. In the multivariate analysis, the OLNâ¯+â¯group had a higher risk HR: 12 (95% CI, 2.4-56; Pâ¯=â¯0.002) of metastatic progression in comparison with OLN - patients. This difference was not observed in the risk of biochemical recurrence HR 1.8 (95% CI, 0.9-3.8; P = 0.09). CONCLUSION: Conventional HE histological analysis underdiagnosed nearly 10% of patients. IHC-detected patients were at higher risk of metastasis development than OLN - patients. This report highlights the importance of optimizing the anatomopathological analysis properly.

INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic transperitoneal radical prostatectomy (LRP) and endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy (EERPE) are established techniques for the management of localized prostate cancer in numerous specialized urologic centers worldwide. RESULTS: The complication rates of LRP and EERPE are ranging between 2 and 17%. Rare but possible complications are vascular injuries, bowel injury, lymphocele formation, port-site hernia, anastomotic leakage, gas embolism and catheter obstruction and other rare events. CONCLUSION: Prevention and management of complications requires high surgical expertise and adequate standardization of the technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We herein review our experience with the endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy in a series of 1,800 consecutive patients regarding the appearance of complications and their management.
