| Abstract | BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to verify the described inverse stage migration after radical prostatectomy by a tertiary care center in 2011 in a national collective. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data from 10,323 patients with prostate cancer (PCa), who had radical prostatectomy between 1998 and 2012, were analyzed regarding prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and age at diagnosis, T stage, and Gleason score. A trend over time was determined by using the Jonckheere-Terpstra test. RESULTS: Median age at surgery was 65 years (1998: 63.7; 2012: 66.5). The proportion of low-risk tumors decreased from 39% in 2005 to 25% in 2012, while the intermediate-risk tumors showed a continuous increase since 1998 from 35 to 52% in 2012. The proportion of patients with a Gleason score ≤ 6 decreased from 60% in 1998 to 25 % in 2012. The Gleason score groups 7a and 7b, however, increased from 12 to 46, % and 12 to 19%, respectively. The proportion of tumors with a Gleason score of 8-10 decreased from 16 to 10%. The proportion of organ-confined prostate cancer increased from 1998 to 2007 continuously from 57 to 73%. Since 2007 the proportion dropped to 64%. CONCLUSIONS: In this national population a trend towards inverse stage migration can be noted. Both the increase in Gleason score ≥ 6 and intermediate-risk tumors can be explained by the modification of the Gleason score. The tendency towards higher age and nonorgan-confined cancers at surgery could be dependent of the growing recognition of radical prostatectomy as a treatment for locally advanced prostate cancer, on the one hand, and the increase of alternative treatments for low-risk cancers, on the other hand. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
