Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
PSA-progresse within 5 years, 3-monthly Follow-up with PSA-measurement in blood

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Comparison of overall survival and morbidity after limited versus extended lymphadenectomy within 5 years after prostatectomy - Development of standard surgery procedures of the radical prostatectomy and lymphadenectomy as well as histopathological procedures for evaluation of tissues. For surgery therapy a precise definition of lymphnode fields that should be cleared within pelvine lymphadenectomy is very relevant. Also, the implementation of quality criteria like minimum account of lymphnodes to clear and definition of resection frames via additional tissue probes evaluation from resection frame. These standards shell be implemented into UICC-classification then.
