The impact of length and location of positive margins in predicting biochemical recurrence after robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy with a minimum follow‐up of 5 years

Abstract

We found that men with >3 mm/multifocal PSMs have a higher risk of BCR than those with unifocal PSMs of ≤3 mm or negative SMs, especially if they have lower risk disease. Posterolateral margins may be of little significance in a RARP population.
