Between 1980 and 1987, 54 patients with prostatic adenocarcinoma in stages T0 to T3, M0, underwent staging by pelvic lymphadenectomy, 16 with associated radical prostatectomy. Lymph node metastases were present in 28 cases (52%). In this study, the presence of pelvic lymph node metastases was better correlated to clinical stage than to histological grade.
1980年至1987年间，54例T0至T3期、M0期的前列腺腺癌患者接受了盆腔淋巴结清扫术进行分期，其中16例同时进行了根治性前列腺切除术。28例（52%）存在淋巴结转移。在本研究中，盆腔淋巴结转移的存在与临床分期的相关性优于与组织学分级的相关性。
