Definition and Impact on Oncologic Outcomes of Persistently Elevated Prostate-specific Antigen After Salvage Lymph Node Dissection for Node-only Recurrent Prostate Cancer After Radical Prostatectomy: Clinical Implications for Multimodal Therapy

The optimal definition and prognostic significance of persistently elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after salvage lymph node dissection (sLND) for node-only recurrent prostate cancer (PCa) remain unknown.To assess the definition and clinical implications of persistently elevated PSA after sLND for node-only recurrent PCa after radical prostatectomy.The study included 579 patients treated with sLND at 11 high-volume centers between 2000...
