Validation of Postoperative Nomograms in Prostate Cancer Patients with Long-term Follow-up

Nomograms dynamically incorporate various risk factors and account for their interrelationships. Our findings confirm that the nomograms are predictive in an external patient population with an accuracy of >70%. The predictive ability of nomograms will be improved with the development of other predictive factors, which will most likely occur through the development of molecular markers.
