Background And Objective: In patients with oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa), prostate-specific membrane antigen-targeted radioguided surgery (PSMA-RGS) prolongs treatment-free survival. Data on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are lacking.
Methods: A retrospective assessment of validated PROMs (12-item Short Form Health Survey [SF-12], 26-item Expanded Prostate Index Composite, and Decision Regret Scale [DRS]) was performed before and after PSMA-RGS for oligorecurrent PCa.
Robot-Assisted PSMA-Radioguided Salvage Surgery for Oligorecurrent Prostate Cancer Using the Novel SENSEI Drop-in Gamma Probe: Correlation of Intraoperative Measurements to Preoperative Imaging and Final Histology.

Background: To examine the feasibility and safety of the SENSEI drop-in gamma probe for robot-assisted, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-radioguided salvage surgery (RGS) in lymph node or local oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa), detected via PSMA positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).
Methods: The first thirteen patients with pelvic oligorecurrent PCa who underwent [Tc]Tc-PSMA-I&S RGS using the SENSEI drop-in gamma probe at the Martini-Klinik (February-June 2024) were retrospectively analyzed. Radioactivity measurements in counts per second (CPS) as absolute values or ratios (CPS of tumor specimens/mean CPS from the patients' benign tissues) were correlated with preoperative imaging and pathological findings (benign/malignant, lesion size).
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the surgical and cancer-related results of salvage radical prostatectomy (sRP) after treatment failure in patients who initially received primary therapy.
- Researchers analyzed data from patients who underwent either primary or salvage surgery, comparing outcomes like recurrence-free survival, surgical complications, and recovery times.
- Findings indicated that sRP performed by experienced surgeons yielded similar outcomes in terms of cancer control and recovery compared to primary radical prostatectomy, though the study's retrospective design was a notable limitation.
Purpose: The aim of our study was to investigate the impact of the time interval between prostate biopsy and radical prostatectomy (RP) on postoperative urinary continence (UC)/erectile function (EF). From a clinical point of view, an interval of several weeks seems to facilitate surgical preparation.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RP for localized prostate cancer (PCa) in a tertiary care center between 2011 and 2020.
Objectives: To evaluate the long-term oncological outcomes and functional results of the neurovascular structure-adjacent frozen-section examination (NeuroSAFE) during nerve-sparing (NS) radical prostatectomy (RP).
Materials And Methods: A 10-yr survival analysis on 11069 RPs performed with or without the NeuroSAFE, between January 2002 to June 2011 was carried out. In the NeuroSAFE cohort, the neurovascular structure-adjacent prostatic margins are removed and stained for cryo-sectioning during RP.
