METHODS: A total of 200 patients with radical prostatectomy admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to January 2021 were retrospectively enrolled as observation objects. According to whether there was biochemical recurrence after surgery, the patients were divided into the abnormal group (n = 62) and normal group (n = 138). Clinical data, encapsulation infiltration, seminal vesicle infiltration and prostate imaging report and data system (PI-RADS) were collected and compared between the two groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance the baseline data of the two groups. Student's t-test and Chi-square test were used to analyse the data.
RESULTS: PSM was performed in a 1:1 ratio, and a total of 72 patients were included in the abnormal and normal groups. The baseline data of the patients in each group were not statistically significant. The incidence of extraperitoneal invasion and seminal vesicle invasion was higher in the abnormal group than in the normal group, and we observed a significant difference in PI-RADS scores between the two groups (p < 0.05). Extracapsular invasion, seminal vesicle invasion, PI-RADS score and biochemical recurrence were significantly correlated (p < 0.05). The PI-RADS score has a high value for predicting biochemical recurrence, with an area under the curve value of 0.824, sensitivity of 0.667, specificity of 0.861 and Youden index of 0.528.
CONCLUSIONS: Bi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging has a high predictive value in biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy, which can provide reference for early intervention measures.
