136 Background: Prostate cancer (Pca) has been found incidentally in radical cystoprostatectomy (RCP) specimens in 27-70%. We evaluated histopathological features and clinical outcome of patients with incidental Pca undergoing RCP for urothelial bladder cancer and identified potential risk factors for the presence of significant Pca, being defined as Gleason Score ≥7b, primary tumor ≥T2c or Pca volume ≥0.5cm3. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients who underwent RCP between 01/2005-03/2015 was performed with regard to clinical data and pathohistological features. Whole mount serial sections of specimens were examined in the same urological and pathological institution. Pca grade, p-stage, cancer volume and surgical margins were recorded. Preoperative PSA values and follow-up were analysed. Results: We identified 71 patients with incidental Pca with a mean age of 71.7 years (47-84 years). 33/71 patients (46.5%) had significant Pca (28.2% ≥T2c, 4.2% GS ≥7b [+≥T2c], 14.1% cancer volume ≥0.5cm3[+≥T2c]). Other features were as follows: pT2a, n=36 (50.7%); pT2b, n=2 (2.8%); GS 6, n=50 (70.4%); GS 7a, n=18 (25,3%). All patients were R0 and N0 for Pca. Mean preoperative PSA level was 2.7ng/ml. None of the patients developed biochemical recurrence (median follow-up: 29.5 [1-124 months]). Patients with significant Pca were older than those with insignificant Pca (median age 71.2 years vs 70.1 years) and had higher preoperative PSA levels: 90% of patients with a PSA level of 4-10ng/ml had a ≥T2c Pca, while 81.5% of patients with PSA levels of 0-1ng/ml had a pT2a Pca. P-stages in patients with PSA values between 1-4ng/ml were found to be equally distributed between pT2a-pT2c. Conclusions: The occurence of incidental Pca is a common finding in patients undergoing RCP, with a considerable proportion having the characteristics of significant Pca. Potential risk factors for significant Pca are older age and PSA levels >4ng/ml. However, none of the patients experienced biochemical relapse or Pca-related death during the follow-up. In line with published data, incidental Pca does not impact on the oncological outcome of patients undergoing RCP. The prognosis is primarily determined by bladder cancer.

Prostate cancer is among the most commonly diagnosed cancers among men, ranking second in cancer globally and first in Western countries. There are marked variations in incidence globally, and its incidence must be interpreted in the context of diagnostic intensity and screening. The uptake of prostate-specific antigen screening since the 1990s has led to dramatic increases in incidence in many countries, resulting in an increased proportion of indolent cancers that would never have come to light clinically in the absence of screening. Risk factors differ when studying prostate cancer overall versus advanced disease. Older age, African ancestry, and family history are established risk factors for prostate cancer. Obesity and smoking are not associated with risk overall, but are associated with increased risk of advanced prostate cancer. Several additional lifestyle factors, medications, and dietary factors are now emerging as risk factors for advanced disease.
