Abstract

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) risk stratification is essential in guiding therapeutic decision. Multiparametric magnetic resonance tomography (mpMRI) holds promise in the prediction of adverse pathologies (AP) after prostatectomy (RP). This study aims to identify clinical and imaging markers in the prediction of adverse pathology. Methods: Patients with PCa, diagnosed by targeted biopsy after mpMRI and undergoing RP, were included. The predictive accuracy of mpMRI for extraprostatic extension (ECE), seminal vesicle infiltration (SVI), and lymph node positivity was calculated from the final histopathology. Results: 846 patients were involved. Independent risk parameters include imaging findings such as ECE (OR 3.12), SVI (OR 2.55), and PI-RADS scoring (4: OR 2.01 and 5: OR 4.34). mpMRI parameters such as ECE, SVI, and lymph node metastases showed a high prognostic accuracy (73.28% vs. 95.35% vs. 93.38%) with moderate sensitivity compared to the final histopathology. The ROC analysis of our combined scoring system (D’Amico classification, PSA density, and MRI risk factors) improves the prediction of adverse pathology (AUC: 0.73 vs. 0.69). Conclusion: Our study supports the use of mpMRI for comprehensive pretreatment risk assessment in PCa. Due to the high accuracy of factors like ECE, SVI, and PIRADS scoring, utilizing mpMRI data enabled accurate prediction of unfavorable pathology after RP.
