摘要：

A recent study investigated the significance of occult metastases in the lymph nodes of prostate cancer patients who were originally considered node negative by histological evaluation. In this Viewpoint the authors discuss pelvic lymph node dissection and survival in prostate cancer patients with evidence of lymph node metastases.
