Abstract
Introduction
Histological outcome of the targeted focal therapy is in principle confirmed by targeted needle biopsy from the treated area in clinical trial. Herein, we report a rare case in which the MFT was followed by RARP.
Case presentation
A 68-year-old man with PSA 9.6 ng/mL and PI-RADS 4 lesion in the right transition zone on multi-parametric MRI underwent MR/ultrasound fusion-guided targeted biopsy, which revealed grade-group 1 cancer. Targeted focal therapy with microwave ablation was performed, resulting in disappearance of the PI-RADS 4 lesion at post-operative 4 months. However, PSA rose to 11.5 ng/mL, and a new PI-RADS 4 lesion, was identified in the left peripheral zone. RARP was performed to reveal new grade-group 3 cancer, and no viable cells in the previously treated area with MFT.
Conclusion
RARP was safely performed even after MFT and proved the pathological complete response of microwave ablation.
