Radical Surgery for Prostatic Cancer
Open accessAbstract
Radical surgical procedures for the cure of prostatic cancer are based on the premise that all cancer cells reside in the tissue to be excised and that the excision be properly accomplished. In the 75 years that have elapsed since radical prostatectomy was first performed, the criteria for the selection of surgical candidates have been refined. Based on pathologic findings and demonstrated long‐term tumor‐free survival, those patients apt to derive the greatest benefit from radical surgery are those with Stage B 1 lesions. We were able to trace 57 patients with Stage B, disease who underwent radical perineal prostatectomy at The Johns Hopkins Hospital between the years 1951–1963. Fifteen years or more postoperatively, 29 (51%) were alive and well, 10 (17%) died of recurrent cancer, and 18 (32%) died without disease. There are no available data to prove that any other therapeutic modality can match the 15‐year survival provided by radical prostatectomy in patients with this stage of disease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
