Correlation of Perineural Invasion with Biochemical Recurrence and Negative Pathological Features in Prostate Adenocarcinoma

Abstract

Perineural invasion is regarded as a significant pathological feature in many organ cancers and a poor prognosis symptom for most of these cancers. In this study, our aim is to analyze the significance of perineural invasion independently from factors such as preoperative Gleason score and clinical, and with regard to biochemical recurrence that occurs after radical prostatectomy.
