[Does the delay from prostate biopsy to radical prostatectomy influence the risk of biochemical recurrence?]

CONCLUSION: Our study showed that after a 3 months delay, the risk of BCR was significantly higher for localized prostate cancer. It seemed possible to extend this period for low-risk patients, whereas it seemed necessary to keep it for intermediate-risks and to reduce it to 2 months for high-risks. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.
