MORPHOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF THE GLYSON SUM BEFORE AND AFTER RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY
Abstract
Prostate cancer is one of the most widespread malignant neoplasms in men and today in Russia prostate cancer occurs in 15.1% of all cancers in men. The detection of prostate cancer is based on a pathomorphological assessment of tissues using the Gleason system, which allows to assess the growth and differentiation of the tumor. It is often possible to detect differences between biopsy and radical prostatectomy samples in terms of changes in the amount of points on the Gleason scale.
Material and methods. In this paper, we comparatively analyzed the sum of Gleason scores after a multifocal biopsy and radical prostatectomy in 50 patients of the Bashkir State University Clinic in 2023.
Results. In 59.4% of cases, the results of the examination of prostate biopsy material coincided with the results after prostatectomy according to the sum of points on the Gleason scale, in 13.5% of cases there was a decrease and in 27% of cases there was an increase.
Conclusion. A decrease in the Gleason score after prostatectomy is associated with a more favorable prognosis of survival, in turn, an increase in graduation, in particular, due to the Gleason component 4, in most cases is regarded as a prognostic factor of biochemical recurrence and cancer-specific mortality. In particular, microscopic characteristics reflecting lymphovascular invasion and extraprostatic spread are important, which may affect the staging of prostate cancer.
