Changing use and extent of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) during radical prostatectomy after American Urological Association (AUA) guideline revision

Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) during radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer provides valuable staging information, but its therapeutic benefit remains uncertain. Our study aimed to characterize PLND use after the revised 2007 American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines for node dissection....

Performing Extended Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection Before Prostatectomy was Associated with Lower Apical Positive Surgical Margin Rates During Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Single-Centre Retrospective Cohort Study

Objective: Positive surgical margins remain clinically relevant after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Whether performing extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) before, rather than after, prostatectomy is associated with lower apical positive surgical margin (PSM) rates has not been evaluated with ad...

Global research trends in salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: a bibliometric and visualization analysis

Overall, the field has progressed from demonstrating procedural feasibility toward evaluating patient-centered and longer-term clinical value, however, the continued prominence of “single institution” research and the concentration of output within expert centers may limit the generalizability of the evidence.
