Tumor volume (TV) has been shown to be an important prognostic factor after radical prostatectomy (RP). We aim to assess whether imaging or biopsy parameters could predict total tumor burden determined on whole mount prostatectomy. METHODS Patients who underwent MP-MRI, TBx, and robotic assisted RP between 2007 and 2013 were reviewed. Lesions suspicious for prostate cancer (PCa) on MRI were manually segmented and TV calculated using iCAD software. Only TBx positive lesions were considered in calculating total MRI TV (MRTV). Pathology was reviewed by a single genitourinary pathologist and histopathological tumor volumes (HTV) were calculated using the ellipsoid formula (length × width × height × 0.52) in cm3, correcting for post-RP tissue shrinkage with a scaling factor of 1.15. Linear regression Pearson coefficients were computed to assess correlations. RESULTS We identified 177 patients who underwent MP-MRI, TBx/12-core biopsy, and subsequent RP, of which 46 patients had MRTV and HTV quantified. Mean PSA was 9.5 ng/ml with a mean age of 62.3 years. Total MRTV correlated with total HTV (R=0.44, p=0.002) (Figure 1). When examining index lesion MRTV, the correlation increased (R=0.44 to R=0.49) between MRTV and total HTV (p<0.001). As expected, index lesion MRTV also had a very strong correlation to index lesion HTV (R=0.61, p<0.001). Age, PSA, and TBx parameters (highest percent core and highest tumor core length) were not significant predictors of total HTV (Figure 1). CONCLUSIONS MRI parameters including total MRTV and index lesion MRTV correlated best with total gland tumor burden on whole mount pathology. Age, PSA, and traditional biopsy parameters such as percent core and tumor length failed to provide a strong correlation with HTV. MRI parameters coupled with TBx may be useful as a surrogate for estimating whole gland disease burden. © 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 193Issue 4SApril 2015Page: e180-e181 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2015 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Richard Ho More articles by this author Arvin K.
