Abstract
PURPOSE To test cancer-specific mortality (CSM) differences in specimen-confined (pT2) prostate cancer (PCa) at radical prostatectomy (RP) with lymph node dissection (LND) according to lymph node invasion (LNI). METHODS RP + LND pT2 PCa patients were identified (surveillance, epidemiology, and end results 2010-2015). CSM-FS rates were tested in Kaplan-Meier plots and multivariable Cox-regression (MCR) models. Sensitivity analyses respectively addressing patients with 6 or more lymph nodes analyzed and pT2 pN1 patients were performed. RESULTS Overall, 32,258 patients with pT2 PCa at RP + LND were identified. Of these, 448 (1.4%) patients harbored LNI. Five-year CSM-free estimates were 99.6% for pN0 vs. 96.4% for pN1 (P < .001). In MCR models, pN1 (HR: 3.4, P < .001) independently predicted higher CSM. In sensitivity analyses addressing patients with 6 or more lymph nodes analyzed (n = 15,437), 328 (2.1%) pN1 patients were identified. In this subgroup, 5-year CSM-free estimates were 99.6% for pN0 vs. 96.3% for pN1 (P < .001) and, in MCR models, pN1 independently predicted higher CSM (HR: 4.4, P < .001). In sensitivity analyses addressing pT2 pN1 patients, 5-year CSM-free estimates were 99.3, 100 and 84.8% for ISUP GG 1-3 vs. 4 vs. 5, respectively (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS In patients with pT2 PCa a small proportion harbor LNI (1.4%-2.1%). In such patients, CSM rate is higher (HR 3.4-4.4, P < .001). This higher CSM risk seems to virtually exclusively apply to ISUP GG5 patients (84.8% 5-year CSM-free rate).

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to detect possible risk factors related to upstaging of clinical stage T2 organ-confined (OC) to non-OC (nOC) bladder cancer (BC) following radical cystectomy (RC). SETTINGS AND DESIGN This was a prospective multicenter study. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This is a multicenter prospective study including 196 Egyptian BC patients undergoing RC from January 2017 to February 2019 at Cairo University, Fayoum University, and Menoufia University. Only patients with muscle invasive BC (T2) were included in the study. Patients' characteristics, preoperative clinical data (including Hydronephrosis), cystoscopy data, and biopsy pathological data were recorded. Preoperative clinical staging is compared to postoperative pathological staging, to determine upstaged cases. The occurrence of upstaging in correspondence to each preoperative factor is recorded and statistically analyzed. RESULTS Among 196 BC patients of our study, upstaging from OC T2 to nOC occurred in 88 (44.9%) patients. Statistical analysis showed that the factors related to upstaging are older age (P ≤ 0.001), large tumor size (P = 0.048), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (P ≤ 0.001), and multifocal tumor (P ≤ 0.001). On the other hand, the following factors were not related to upstaging: gender (P = 0.159), smoking (P = 0.286), preoperative hydronephrosis (P = 0.242), and presence of carcinoma in situ (P = 0.349). CONCLUSIONS The difference between clinical and pathological staging of BC patients following RC is a frequent problem with no clear guidelines to overcome it. Several factors including age of the patient, large tumor size, LVI, and multifocal tumor are predictors of upstaging in OC BC. A good concern must be taken in these patients to achieve an optimum treatment plan for them.
