Indications and complications of pelvic lymph node dissection for prostate cancer: are currently available nomograms accurate to predict lymph node invasion?
Objectives: to externally validate currently available nomograms for predicting lymph node invasion (LNI) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients and to assess the potential risk of complications of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) when using the recommended cut-off.
