Predictors of visible CSPCa were assessed by multivariable logistic regression. Statistical significance was defined as p<0.05. RESULTS: Out of 148 patients, 112(76%) had visible CSPCa. CB was identified in 63 (43%) patients of those, 51 (81%) were detected on TB (visible on mpMRI). Patients with MRI visible CSPCa showed a higher median age (69 vs 67 yr, p=0.03); PSA (7.9 vs 5.9 ng/mL, p=0.006); PSA density (PSAD, 0.19 vs 0.14 ng/mL2, p=0.12); clinical T stage; T1 (43% vs 71%), T2 (38% vs 23%), and T3 (19% vs 6%) (p=0.01); rate of aggressive PCa: GG 2 (36% vs 72%), GG3 (29% vs 22%), GG4 (25% vs 0%), and GG5 (9% vs 6%) (p<0.001); number of cancer positive cores (7 vs 6, p=0.02); and maximum cancer core length (MCCL) (9 vs 7 mm, p<0.001), respectively. On multivariable analysis, GG 3-5 vs 2 (hazard ratio HR 4.68, 95% CI 2.05-10.68) and MCCL (HR 1.16, 95% CI 1.03-1.31) were independent predictors for MRI visible CSPCa; however, the presence of CB was not (HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.28-1.99). In patients with CB PCa, the presence of a large subtype of CB (HR 6.65, 95% CI 1.36-32.46) was an independent predictor for MRI visibility. CONCLUSIONS: Majority (81%) of CSPCa harboring Cribriform pattern are visible on mpMRI, however the MRI visibility seems to be associated with higher aggressiveness of the PCa and larger PCa volume. Less aggressive and lower volume PCa containing Cribriform pattern may not be visible on mpMRI. However, among the patients with cribriform, the presence of a large cribriform subtype is an independent predictor for MRI visibility.
