Conclusion
Our results showed that, in PCa patients with pathological advanced local stage, the removal of a higher number of nodes during RP was associated with an improvement in cancer-specific survival rate. This implies that an ePLND should be considered in all patients with a significant preoperative risk of harboring adverse pathological stage.
