[Abstract] Objective To investigate the correlation between radiologic extranodal extension (rENE) and prostate cancer Gleason score and International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grades.Materials and Methods Ninety PCa N1 cases with integrated MRI and pathology data in Xijing Hospital affiliated to Air Force Medical University from January 2017 to June 2021 were selected. According to the presence or absence of rENE, they were divided into rENE+ and rENE- groups, of which 67 cases were in the rENE+ group and 23 cases in the rENE- group. The statistical differences between groups were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The correlation between rENE and Gleason scores, ISUP grades were evaluated by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Relative risk (RR) rate of ISUP grades was also calculated.Results The Gleason scores and ISUP grades in rENE+ patients were higher than rENE- patients, the statistical differences between two groups were significant. Patients in the rENE+ group were 2.6 times more likely to have ISUP 5 than those in the rENE- group (RR=2.6, 95% CI: 1.477-3.676) and patients in the rENE- group were 17.4 times more likely to have ISUP≤3 than those in the rENE+ group (RR=17.4, 95% CI: 4.2-72.3). The Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was 0.547 (95% CI: 0.363-0.688), 0.570 (95% CI: 0.367-0.716) in Gleason scores and ISUP grades.Conclusion rENE was moderately related to Gleason scores and ISUP grades. Compared to rENE- patients, rENE+ patients got higher Gleason scores and ISUP grades. rENE may be used to predict the degree of malignancy of PCa noninvasively.
