Concordance between biopsy and radical prostatectomy specimen Gleason score in internal and external pathology facilities / A.A.C. Grasso, G. Cozzi, C. Palumbo, G. Albo, B. Rocco. - In: ANTICANCER RESEARCH. - ISSN 0250-7005. - 34:10(2014 Oct), pp. 5585-5588.
Abstract:
Biopsy Gleason score (bGS) is an important tool for staging and decision making in patients with prostate cancer. Therefore, the data from biopsy should be both reproducible across different pathologists and predictive of the true underlying tumour. We evaluated the agreement between bGS with prostatectomy Gleason score (pGS) comparing patients who underwent prostate biopsy at our hospital with those who did it at an outside facility.
