Abstract

Background: Despite the high recurrence rate, radical prostatectomy (RP) remains as a preferable surgical treatment of localized prostate cancer. Adjuvant radiotherapy (ART) and salvage radiotherapy (SRT) are available approaches in preventing biochemical progression after RP. We aim to investigate the use of radiotherapy, both ART and SRT, in those who underwent RP.Methods: We used a retrospective cohort study design, with samples recruited from prostate cancer patients who underwent RP between January 2008 and December 2016. Patients who had undergone RP at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia were included in the present study. More in detail, three and five subjects were treated with ART and SRT, respectively. We only included those who had a minimum of one year of follow-up. Variables including age, preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA), clinical staging, pathological staging, Gleason score, and death were recorded. We analyzed the overall survival time using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results: From 34 patients included in the study, 26 underwent RP alone, while 5 patients underwent adjuvant radiotherapy and 3 patients underwent salvage radiotherapy after RP. The mean ages in the three groups were 61.46 ± 5.76, 58.2 ± 4.86 and 62.67 ± 7.5, respectively. The preoperative PSA value was above 10 mg/dL in 61.5% in patients without RT, 100% in patients with ART after RP, and none in SRT. 17 (51.5%) out of 33 subjects were ≥T2 clinical stage and 24/30 (80%) subjects were ≥pT2. Timing for ART and SRT ranged from 1.07 to 6.3 and 5.27 to 21.43 months after RP, respectively. The 10-year survival rates were 84.6% in patients with RP alone, 80% in patients with ART+RP, and 66.7% in patients with SRT+RP. The average survivals of those who had RP alone as well as ART and SRT were 44.56 ± 32.64, 46.79 ± 24.02, and 71.71 ± 38.74 months.Conclusions: The average survival of those who received SRT is better than those who underwent ART and RP alone. Prospective studies with larger samples are needed to evaluate the efficacy of radiation therapy after radical prostatectomy.

Abstract

Background: The number of men with benign prostate hyperplasia undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) with the subsequent development of prostate cancer has been increasing. This study aimed to compare the surgical, oncological, and functional outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy techniques in patients with the history of TURP.Methods: Literature search of electronic databases was performed through Pubmed, Science Direct, SCOPUS, and CENTRAL databases. Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool was then employed to assess the risk of bias in each study. Grey literature was also searched from sources such as Cancer Care Ontario and conference abstracts. Critical appraisals of included studies were conducted using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.Results: The searches located 1258 citations, but only 11 studies were included in the final selection. Most studies had a good methodological quality based on the Ottawa Scale. The mean age of samples was varied among each study from 61.8 to 70.8 years. The TURP history significantly affects biochemical recurrences (OR 2.29, 95% CI 1.14–4.59), intraoperative blood loss (MD 57 ml; 95% CI 6–108 m), prolonged operative duration (MD 20 minutes; 95% CI 3–37 minutes), and surgical complications (OR 2.54, 95% CI 1.79–3.60) following radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. In the subgroup analysis, only prolonged operative duration and surgical complications were significant both in laparoscopic and robotic radical prostatectomy. There was no association between the TURP history and the positive surgical margin rate in total and subgroup analyses. Conclusions: The previous TURP history affects the outcomes of patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, either laparoscopic or robotic.

Abstract

Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) screening and diagnosis are mandatory to deliver optimal management in the early phase. Even though it has been discussed in many guidelines, the implementation of PCa screening and diagnosis in Indonesia remains unknown. This study aims to evaluate the pattern of PCa screening and diagnosis among Indonesian urologists and their adherence to guidelines. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted between February and July 2019. Respondents were Indonesian urologists registered as members of the Indonesian Urological Association (IUA) and had already practiced for at least six months. Data were collected using questionnaires, which were distributed at a national urology symposium and electronically via Google Form. Data were presented descriptively, and all data were processed using SPSS version 23. Results: Of 458 urologists, 195 (42.6%) gave full responses. Most of the respondents, 181 (92.8%) urologists, used the IUA guidelines. Among the 103 (52.8%) respondents who performed screening, nearly half (42.7%) agreed to screen patients aged ≥ 50 years or ≥ 45 years with a family history of PCa. Moreover, 76.8% would repeat screening annually, and 35.6% would stop when the patient’s age reached 70 years old. Digital rectal examination (DRE) was frequently performed for screening (74.5%), while prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests were only performed in 52.3% of cases. The PSA test was available in 74.8% of hospitals. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) was still used by 67.2% of respondents for diagnosis. Only 52.3 % of participants used transrectal prostate biopsy for diagnosis, using anesthesia (78.1%) during the procedure, and increased PSA level (98%) as its indication. However, Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) was only available in 49% of hospitals. This study found that Indonesian urologist adherence level toward guidelines was 63.3% (9–100%). Conclusions: PCa screening and diagnosis are still varied among Indonesian urologists, which might arise due to the different availability of diagnostic modalities.
