I have followed this site for several months. Today I got my biopsy results. 3 out of 10 confirmed cancer in peripheral zone right side GS: 2 x 3+3 and 1 x 3+4 (GP4 - 40%) . MRI for a month ago detected malignity tumor of size 1.2 cm, PI-RADS 4. No sign on pelvis area and neighboring lymph nodes. Clinical stage: T2/T3? pstage?
Histology reporting:
core 1: prostate tissue with adenocarcinoma, Gleason grade 3+3 score 6 grade group 1, 8/13 mm
core 2: prostate tissue with adenocarcinoma, Gleason grade 3+3 score 6 grade group 1, 0.5/13 mm
core 3: prostate tissue with adenocarcinoma, Gleason grade 3+4 (40%) score 7 grade group 2, 9/12 mm
cores 4 to 10 : negative.
I am 59 years and Dr. strongly recommend removal of the whole gland by DaVinci. But I am not sure how to choose the way forward, what treatment, and hoping that I can get some advice here.
Any guidance and suggestion is highly appreciated.
I am also wondering about the quantity and amount of GP4 in tumor? 40% is reported on one core, does it mean the quantity of GP4 is min. 40% or it maybe higher?
