Abstract

Correct staging of prostate carcinoma (PCa) is important for therapeutic management as it allows selection of an appropriate therapeutic option and correct therapeutic planning. The detection of extracapsular extension (ECE) of a PCa is an essential part of tumor staging because the absence of ECE (organ-confined disease) positively affects long-term prognosis, while the converse is true for the presence of ECE (non-organ-confined/pathologic stage ≥T3 disease) [1, 2].
