Summary
Standard treatment of local or locally advanced prostate cancer is radical prostatectomy
(RRP) surgery. During RRP in certain patients extended lymph node dissection (ELND) is
recommended. to detect eligible patients for ELND some nomograms based on clinical factors of
them is used. The Briganti nomogram is one of them. If the patient has 7% or more probability
on Briganti nomogram, then ELND is recommended. But ELND is complicated surgical procedure
and may cause labor lost and cost.
It is aimed here to show whether the ICG based fluorescence imaging during laparoscopy may
yield higher accuracy to detect metastatic LNs than the conventional ELND?
