Long-term Oncologic Impact of Positive Anterior and Posterior Surgical Margins After Radical Prostatectomy

Conclusions: In our study, we found that prostate cancer patients with anterior-PSM showed a more favorable BCR prognosis similar to those with apex-PSM when comparing to patients with posterior-PSM. Our study results may help physicians to choose different treatment options for patients diagnosed with different PSM status including considering further adjuvant treatment for patients with posterior-PSM.
