Concomitant high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia is associated with good prognosis factors and oncologic outcome after radical prostatectomy.

AbstractOBJECTIVES:
To assess correlations between concomitant high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN), pathological features and oncologic outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP).
MATERIAL AND METHODS:
We prospectively collected a single-institution database of 2,351 patients who underwent RP between 1998 and 2011.
RESULTS:
1,272 (54.1%) patients had HGPIN on specimens. The mean follow-up was 28 months. Presence of HGPIN was significantly associated with a favorable preoperative risk status and with pathological factors of poor prognosis in RP specimens. Patients without HGPIN had a worse biochemical recurrence-free survival compared with those with HGPIN in RP specimen (log-rank test: p = 0.015). The 3-year RFS rate was 73.9% for the HGPIN group versus 67.2%. The absence of HGPIN was also significantly correlated with the use of androgen deprivation treatment during the follow-up (p < 0.001). In Cox multivariate analysis, taking into account the other prognostic pathological factors, HGPIN was not an independent predictive factor for PSA failure (p = 0.868).
CONCLUSION:
HGPIN is associated with factors of good prognosis but fails to show independent significance when classical pathological prognostic factors are taken into account.
