A retrospective analysis of 70 patients, undergoing a radical prostatectomy in 1989 and 1990 is reported. The value of computed tomography (CT) scanning in preoperative lymph node staging should be reconsidered. Evaluation of the resection margins is of utmost importance as is the distinction between capsular invasion, penetration and transgression. The etiology of local failure and its treatment are discussed.
