Abstract
To assess whether any relationship exists between the number of histologically examined lymph nodes and the detection of metastases in pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) specimens taken from patients with radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostatic adenocarcinoma. 1690 cases of RP with PNLD were included in the study; 54Â % of the patients were submitted to extended PLND (ePLND).
