Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer Treated with Radiation Therapy
(2014)
Background: Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (Anti-VEGF) agents are a promising approach to increase the efficacy of treatment for treatment-resistant prostate cancer.
Aims: To correlate vascular endothelial ...
The role of T2-weighted images in assessing the grade of extraprostatic extension of the prostate carcinoma
(2020)
Purpose Extraprostatic extension (EPE) is an unfavorable prognostic factor and the grade of EPE is also shown to be correlated with the prognosis of prostate cancer. The current study assessed the value of prostate magnetic ...
The Role of Radical Prostatectomy in the Treatment of Patients with High-Risk Prostate Cancer
(2015)
High-risk prostate cancer (PCa), which is defined as PSA > 20 ng/mL or Gleason Score (GS) > 7 or >= cT3a, accounts for up to 40% of newly diagnosed cases and carries a significant risk of progression and death. However, ...
Predictive values of vascular endothelial growth factor and microvessel-density levels in initial biopsy for prostate cancer
(2016)
Angiogenesis is an important factor in the development and progression of prostate cancer (PCA). We aimed to investigate the values of vascular-endothelial-growth-factor (VEGF) expression level and microvessel density (MVD) ...
Evaluation of the Current Situation Tissue and Serum Biomarkers in Prostate Cancer
(2015)
Prostate cancer, is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States and in many parts of the world and ranks 2nd in death from cancer among men. Lifetime risk of developing prostate cancer is 16%. Currently the ...
Three Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Patients with Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer; Hacettepe University Experience
(2015)
The aim of this study into evaluate the treatment results of three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (CLPC). Between ...
Correlation of Clinical Risk Factors with Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Images in Prostate Cancer Patients Treated with Definitive Radiotherapy
(2015)
This study is aimed to correlate apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and clinical T-stage, serum PSA, pathology Gleason scores. We also further analyzed whether ADC values could be used to appropriately define the ...
Can We Predict the Surgical Margin Positivity in Patients Treated with Radical Prostatectomy? A Multicenter Cohort of Turkish Association of Uro-Oncology
(2015)
Objective
To analyze the parameters that predict the surgical margin positivity after radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer.
Materials and Methods
In this multicenter study, the data of 1607 consecutive ...
Role of 68-Ga-PSMA-PET/CT in pelvic radiotherapy field definitions for lymph node coverage in prostate cancer patients
(2020)
Purpose: To evaluate the distribution of metastatic lymph nodes (LN) detected on Ga-68-PSMA-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in treatment-naive prostate cancer (PC) patients and to analyze the LN ...
Evaluation of the most optimal multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging sequence for determining pathological length of capsular contact
(2019)
Objectives: To assess the most optimal multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging sequence (Mp-MRI) in determining pathological length of capsular contact (LCC) for the diagnosis of prostate cancer extraprostatic extension ...
