Boundaries of the pelvic lymph node dissection field in our study divided into external iliac vein, obturator fossa, and internal iliac vessels (hypogastric vessels). In the 122 node-positive patients, positive nodes were found exclusively in the area of the external iliac vein in 9%, the obturator fossa in 16%, and the internal iliac vessels in 21%. Positive internal iliac nodes alone (21%) or in combination with positive nodes in other locations (49%) were found in 70% of our patients.

Cancer-specific survival rates in patients with 1 (1 pN+), 2 (2 pN+) and ≥3 (≥3 pN+) positive nodes removed with no ADT vs those with salvage ADT with extended PLND followed by RRP and in whom ≥10 lymph nodes were detected in the surgical specimen.

Biochemical recurrence-free survival rates in 47 patients with 1 positive node (1 pN+), 27 patients with 2 positive nodes (2 pN+), and in 48 patients with ≥3 positive nodes (≥3 pN+) treated with extended PLND followed by RRP, and in whom ≥10 lymph nodes were detected in the surgical specimen (log rank p<0.001).
