N2 - Radical prostatectomy represents the mainstay of therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer. The combination of diagnostic parameters such as PSA or biopsy Gleason grade in nomograms allows a safe prediction of pathologic stage and prognosis of the disease. Imaging techniques are useful in a subset of patients. International studies have proven a high cancer control rate of radical prostatectomy. A nerve-sparing modification of the operative technique does not compromise radicality of the procedure if patients are carefully selected. For this purpose simple and reliable algorithms are available.
