Tumor Percent Involvement Predicts Prostate Specific Antigen Recurrence After Radical Prostatectomy Only in Men With Smaller Prostate

Abstract

In men with a prostate of less than 35 cc tumor percent involvement is an important variable when assessing the risk of prostate specific antigen recurrence. Tumor percent involvement and prostate volume should be considered when counseling patients and determining who may benefit from heightened surveillance after radical prostatectomy.
