We prospectively analysed the micro-metastatic pelvic node yield in completely staged men and calculated survival curves. METHODS Data was collected prospectively. Survival was calculated using Kaplan Meier analysis. All cases were discussed at a supranetwork multidisciplinary meeting. Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy was planned for any groin with extracapsular spread or pelvis with positive nodes. RESULTS Since January 2012, 31 men with SCCp, ipN3 but pelvic node negative on CT, underwent complete pathological pelvic node staging. Median age was 59 years (IQR 54-67). Median node yield was 8 (IQR 6-10). 94% were performed robotically. 84% received adjuvant chemoradiotherapy.52% of men had micro-metastatic disease in at least 1 ipsilateral pelvic node. Comparison of 3-year overall survival of negative pelvic node dissection vs positive pelvic node dissection showed similar survival curves plateauing at around 18 months. 3-year overall survival was 69% vs 65% respectively. CONCLUSIONS A significant number of men had micro-metastatic pelvic node involvement. The explanation behind similar survival curves is uncertain but highlights the importance of complete pathological nodal staging which determines the extent of adjuvant therapy. © 2018FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 199Issue 4SApril 2018Page: e1130 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2018MetricsAuthor Information Benjamin Ayres More articles by this author Rami Issa More articles by this author Alison Tree More articles by this author Brendan Tinwell More articles by this author Cathy Corbishley More articles by this author Nick Watkin More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
