Zusammenfassung:The natural history of Stage D1 adenocarcinoma of the prostate remains unclear. In a series of 50 patients with positive pelvic lymph nodes at the time of staging lymphadenectomy, metastatic disease developed in 43 per cent of the patients treated for cure within the period of time of follow-up. Several series from the literature confirm those findings. Positive pelvic lymph nodes most probably represent systemic disease, and the patients are incurable by current surgical and radiotherapeutic modalities.
