SD: Standard Deviation, BMI: Body Mass Index, IQR: Interquartile Range, St: Standard, MR: MR Guided G1: Group 1 (<=3 Months), G2 = Group 2 (>3 Months). 1 Independent Samples t-test, 2 Mann-Whitney U Test,3 x2 Test
Surgical and pathological parameters including lymph node (LN) dissection, per-operative complications, type of RP, surgical margin (SM) status, LN positivity, extracapsular extension (ECE), seminal vesicle (SV) invasion and Gleason Grade Group at RP were in low, intermediate and high-risk patients (p>0.05) (Table 3). On the other hand, in intermediate risk patients, nerve sparing rate was found to be higher in group 1 (p=0.032). Additionally, in low-risk patients, in group 1, it was observed that Gleason Grade group significantly increased in RP pathology compared to biopsy pathology (p=0.046) (Table 3).
