Does Platelet Mass Index Play a Role in Predicting Biochemical Recurrence in Localized Prostate Cancer?

Objective:The aim of this study is to investigate the association of preoperative platelet mass index (PMI) with tumor pathologic features and postoperative biochemical recurrence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy due to localized prostate cancer.Materials and Methods:Data of 141 patients...

description Objective:The aim of this study is to investigate the association of preoperative platelet mass index (PMI) with tumor pathologic features and postoperative biochemical recurrence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy due to localized prostate cancer.Materials and Methods:Data of 141 patients, who underwent radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer between April 2004 and April 2017, were retrospectively screened. Patient age, preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, platelet count, mean platelet volume and PMI value, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), tumor grade, Gleason score, tumor volume, lymph node involvement, surgical margin positivity and biochemical recurrence at 3 months were all noted. The relationship of preoperative PMI value with age, PSA, pathologic parameters, surgical margin positivity and biochemical recurrence was evaluated.Results:The mean age of the patients was 61.79±5.98 years, the mean PSA value was 9.50±6.69 ng/mL, mean PMI was 2003.91±486.69, and the mean NLR was 2.79±2.06. There was no correlation of PMI value with PSA, pathological stage, Gleason score, lymph node involvement, tumor volume, surgical margin positivity, and biochemical recurrence. There was statistically significant negative correlation between PMI and Gleason score.Conclusion:In our study, we could not demonstrate preoperative PMI as a prognostic factor for early biochemical recurrence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. To achieve a better conclusion that we can generalize, there is a need for prospective studies with larger patient series.
