    Abstract: To investigate the impact of intra‐operative neurovascular structure‐adjacent frozen‐section examination (NeuroSAFE) on the rate of nerve‐sparing surgery (NSS) and oncological outcome in a large radical prostatectomy (RP) cohort. Patients and methods Between January 2016 and December 2020, 1756 prostate cancer patients underwent robot‐assisted RP, of whom 959 (55%) underwent this with NeuroSAFE and 797 (45%) without (control cohort). In cases where NeuroSAFE showed tumour in the margin, a secondary resection was performed. The effect of NeuroSAFE on NSS and positive surgical margin (PSM) status was analysed using logistic regression. Cox regression was used to identify predictors of biochemical recurrence‐free survival (BCRFS). Results and limitations Patients in the NeuroSAFE cohort had a higher tumour grade ( P 〈  0.001) and clinical stage ( P 〈  0.001) than those in the control cohort. NeuroSAFE enabled more frequent NSS for both pT2 (93% vs 76%; P 〈  0.001) and pT3 disease (83% vs 55%; P 〈  0.001). In adjusted analysis, NeuroSAFE resulted in more frequent unilateral (odds ratio [OR] 3.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.90–5.30; P 〈  0.001) and bilateral (OR 5.22, 95% CI 3.90–6.98; P 〈  0.001) NSS. While the PSM rate decreased from 51% to 42% in patients with pT3 stage disease ( P = 0.031), NeuroSAFE was not an independent predictor of PSM status (OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.68–1.06; P = 0.2) in the entire cohort. Patients who underwent NeuroSAFE had better BCRFS compared to the control cohort (hazard ratio 0.62, 95% CI 0.45–0.84; P = 0.002). This study is limited by its comparison with a historical cohort and lack of functional outcomes. Conclusions NeuroSAFE enables more unilateral and bilateral NSS without negatively affecting surgical margin status and biochemical recurrence. This validation study provides a comprehensive overview of the implementation, evaluation and intra‐operative decision making associated with NeuroSAFE in clinical practice.

    Abstract: To identify parameters to predict upgrading in biopsy Grade Group (GG) 2 prostate cancer patients without cribriform and intraductal carcinoma (CR/IDC) on biopsy. Methods Preoperative biopsies from 657 men undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer were reviewed for GG, presence of CR/IDC, percentage Gleason pattern 4, and tumor length. In men with biopsy GG2 without CR/IDC ( n  = 196), clinicopathologic features were compared between those with GG1 or GG2 without CR/IDC on RP (GG ≤ 2−) and those with GG2 with CR/IDC or any GG  〉  2 (GG ≥ 2+). Logistic regression analysis was used to predict upgrading in the biopsy cohort. Results In total 283 men had biopsy GG2 of whom 87 (30.7%) had CR/IDC and 196 (69.3%) did not. CR/IDC status in matched biopsy and RP specimens was concordant in 179 (63.3%) and discordant in 79 (27.9%) cases (sensitivity 45.1%; specificity 92.6%). Of 196 biopsy GG2 men without CR/IDC, 106 (54.1%) had GG ≥ 2+ on RP. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age [odds ratio (OR): 1.85, 95% confidence interval (CI)1.09–3.20; p  = 0.025], percentage Gleason pattern 4 (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.17–2.07; p  = 0.003), PI-RADS 5 lesion (OR 2.17, 95% CI 1.03–4.70; p  = 0.045) and clinical stage T3 (OR 3.60; 95% CI 1.08–14.50; p  = 0.049) were independent parameters to predict upgrading to GG ≥  2+ on RP in these men. Conclusions Age, clinical stage T3, percentage Gleason pattern 4 and presence of PI-RADS 5 lesions are independent predictors for upgrading in men with biopsy GG2 without CR/IDC. These findings allow for improved clinical decision-making on surveillance eligibility in intermediate-risk prostate cancer patients.
