Abstract
All three generations of the Partin tables showed a good accuracy to predict OC, SVI and LNI. However, the predictive accuracy for ECE was only modest. Overall, the newer versions of the Partin tables could not exceed the version of 1997 in their predictive accuracy for any pathological stage and they failed to demonstrate a clear advantage. Our results underline the necessity to perform external validations before the implementation of a new predicting tool.
