Abstract

The increase in prostate cancer detection has induced a sharp increase in the number of radical prostatectomies Proper examination of radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens by pathologists is critical in determining the need for adjuvant treatment and prediction of patient outcome. The pathology report should include relevant clinical information as well as provide prognostically useful information derived from the macroscopic examination and microscopic evaluation of the RP specimen
