@diverjer That’s pretty much what mine was…a ‘tiny’ break in the capsule, but surgical margins negative.
Needed SRT 5 yrs later anyway…

It's all confusing to me because up further in report it says:
Margin Status: Invasive carcinoma present at margin
Linear Length of Margin(s) Involved by Carcinoma: Less than 3 mm (limited)
So what margin are they talking about? One place says Margin Involvement by Invasive Carcinoma in Area of Extraprostatic Extension (EPE): Not identified then another says- Invasive carcinoma present at margin.
My guess is they took out fatty tissue around prostate, cancer had went through prostate in one spot <3mm into fatty tissue. However at the outside of that fatty tissue cut there wasn't anything? Maybe I can get some answers in next couple weeks, it's only been about 4 months, wouldn't want to rush them!
