Tras meses de trabajo, presentamos la versión de evaluación de la 2.ª edición del Protocolo en #CáncerDePróstata
Basada en la evidencia científica actual y en el trabajo multidisciplinar
La edición definitiva estará disponible en septiembre.

Raúl Solís se “levantaba” al mes un 2650€ por un trabajo al 50% en el grupo municipal de Podemos.
Si hubiese trabajado al 100% se “levantaría” 5285€ al mes.
Si trabajase 55-60h a la semana (eso significa “con guardias”) se “levantaría” 8.000€ al mes.
El titular de redacción anti-médica es despreciable. Raúl Solís también.
El FIN de la recaída bioquímica.
El PET con Cobre detecta más del doble de lesiones que el PET con Galio en la recaída post prostatectomia.
En lugar de hablar de recaída bioquímica podremos detectar el sitio de recurrencia y darle al paciente una nueva oportunidad de rescate.
Microultrasonography-guided biopsy was noninferior to MRI-guided biopsy for detection of clinically significant #ProstateCancer, supporting its use as an alternative imaging modality.

🚨🚨 Novel Technique for Stent Placement During Ureteroureterostomy
@MatveyTsivian describes a resource-efficient intraoperative stenting technique that avoids cystoscopy and patient repositioning, with no observed stent malposition.

🚨 Prostate cancer care has changed fast. Here’s the 2025 snapshot.
The new Lancet Seminar lays out how prostate cancer management has transformed across the disease spectrum 🌍🧬
🔍 Early disease
Active surveillance is the default for low-risk tumors, avoiding overtreatment while maintaining excellent outcomes. MRI-first pathways improve detection of clinically significant cancer.
⚖️ Localized to high-risk
Surgery and modern radiotherapy offer equivalent cancer control. Hypofractionation and SBRT shorten treatment without compromising efficacy. High-risk disease needs multimodality care.
🚀 Metastatic hormone-sensitive
ADT alone is no longer enough. Doublet or triplet therapy with ARPIs ± docetaxel is now standard, with prostate RT benefiting low-volume disease.
🎯 mCRPC era
Treatment is biology-driven: PARP inhibitors for HRR alterations, Lu-177 PSMA radioligand therapy after ARPI and taxanes, cabazitaxel preferred over ARPI sequencing.
🧠 Big takeaway
Sequencing, patient selection, toxicity, and shared decision-making matter as much as drug choice.

📱 Uroflowmetry in your pocket? Sounds like fiction — but it’s real.
Smartphone + AI delivers Qmax comparable to standard uroflowmetry with gold-standard accuracy:
✔️ 96.8% agreement
✔️ 0.04 ml/s mean error
No cables. No clinic stress.
This is how home urology monitoring begins.

I learned some cool stuff at the AUA other than craps 🎲. Here are some things I found interesting #AUA25 🎰
1. Vesical mucosa grafts instead of buccal for ureteroplasty. Italian group with success in all 14 patients. With some muscle backing behind it seems ideal.
External validation of nomograms for predicting lymph node invasion (LNI) in prostate cancer patients with negative PSMA PET-CT. What did we find? The Briganti 2023 nomogram is the most accurate! 📊✅
🔍 Why does it matter?
Extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) is the gold standard for staging but comes with risks. With PSMA PET-CT revolutionizing imaging, we need better predictive tools to avoid unnecessary procedures.
📌 Key Findings:
•Among 282 patients, 13% had LNI despite negative PSMA PET-CT.
•The Briganti 2023 nomogram outperformed others (C-index: 77% vs. MSKCC 64%, Briganti 2017 69%, Amsterdam-Brisbane-Sydney 64%).
•Using a 5% risk cutoff would spare 47% of ePLND procedures while missing only 3.8% of LNI cases! 🚫🔬
⚖️ Clinical Impact:
•Improves decision-making: More precise risk stratification means fewer unnecessary surgeries.
•Saves patients from complications: ePLND has side effects; avoiding it when possible is crucial.
•Guides personalized treatment: Selecting the right patients for ePLND enhances care quality.
👨⚕️ Takeaway: The Briganti 2023 nomogram should be the go-to tool for predicting LNI in prostate cancer patients with negative PSMA PET-CT! 📈

Negative PSMA PET can be used to avoid unnecessary pelvic lymph node dissection in intermediate risk prostate cancer
https://t.co/GbMi9MisMI
This study investigated whether pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) could be avoided in intermediate-risk #ProstateCancer patients with negative PSMA PET scans undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP). Of 371 patients identified, 333 underwent PLND while 38 did not. Kaplan-Meier analyses showed no significant difference in biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival at 36 months between those who had PLND (78.7%) and those who did not (76.7%).
The negative predictive value (NPV) of PSMA PET for detecting lymph node invasion (LNI) was 90.1%, suggesting that in patients with negative PSMA PET, PLND might be unnecessary. However, long-term oncologic outcomes were not assessed.
