The retrospective analysis of clinical features, treatment and prognosis of incidental prostate cancer / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the clinical feature,treatment and prognosis of incidental prostate cancer(IPC) after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods From January 2009 to April 2017,24 cases undergoing TURP for benign prostatic hyperplasia and being diagnosed with prostate cancer(T1a-T1b) was retrospectivey analysed,who aged from 62 to 84 years (mean 71.8 years).Digital rectal examination (DRE) showed prostate medium texture,smooth surface,and no nodules.Ultrasound presented no low echo nodules in the prostate.Prostate volumes were 19.2-93.4 ml,with median of 40.1 ml.PSA were 1.81-9.11 ng/ml,with median of 4.12 ng/ml.The patients with PSA between 6-10 ng/ml accepted prostate biopsy,and pathological results were negative.Results The The pathology of TURP specimens in 24 cases were diagnosed prostate cancer (21 cases of T1a,3 cases of T1b).According to the new WHO/ISUP classification group,there were 18 cases of hierarchical group 1,3 cases of hierarchical group 2,1 case of hierarchical group 3,2 cases in hierarchical group 4.All patients were treated with hormonal therapy,and 7 cases (5 cases of hierarchical group 1,and 2 cases of hierarchical group 2) underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) after 3 months of hormonal therapy.The specimens of prostatectomy were examined by whole-mount serial,showing 3 cases of prostate cancer (T1a) with negative margin,and 4 cases of benign prostate cells.They were followed up for 5-82 months with median of 43.5 months.No biological progression or tumor progression was found,and,1 case died of colon cancer after 26 months of follow-up.The patients' age and Gleason score of stage T1b were higher than that of stage T1a.Prostate volume and preoperative PSA had no statistically significant difference between the two stages.Conclusions The patients' age and Gleason score of stage T1b were higher than that of stage T1b.The proportion of residual tumor following TURP was high.The prognosis of incidental prostate cancer was good by hormonal therapy or radical prostatectomy.
