Abstract
Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the most common male cancer diseases. Pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLAE) is an important diagnostic stage during both surgery and radiotherapy. The main goal of PLAE is to evaluate the pelvic lymph nodes (LN), which makes it possible to define the prognosis of the disease and to choose the most rational treatment policy. The paper analyzes the results of treating 298 moderate-to highrisk circumscribed and locally advanced PC patients undergoing prostatectomy or extended PLAE at the Department of Oncourology, P.A. Herzen Moscow Oncology Research Institute. The detection rate for LN metastases and their site are estimated and the risk for complications due to extended PLAE analyzed.
