Background: We report long-term oncologic outcomes in patients with positive surgical margins (PSMs) at radical prostatectomy (rP) and the oncologic impact of different scenarios of PSMs presentation. MeTHoDS: We selected 494 men with at least 3 years follow-up after surgery. PSMs patterns were recorded as: burden (focal vs. multifocal), site...

Purpose: To perform an external validation of a recently published nomogram aimed to predict positive 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP) by Rauscher et al. (Eur Urol 73(5):656–661, 2018). Methods: Overall, 413 PCa patients with BCR after RP (two consecutive PSA ≥ 0.2 ng/ml) and PSA...

Background: To develop a clinical nomogram aimed to predict the achievement of trifecta in patients treated with open, laparoscopic and robotic partial nephrectomy (PN) for localized renal masses (
