Your pathology report shows favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The confined stage (pT2N0) and absence of seminal vesicle or lymph node involvement indicate the cancer had not spread outside the prostate, though a microscopic positive apical margin means some cells were close to the edge of surgical removal.

Can we assume you had your prostate removed (prostatectomy)? Have you had your PSA checked recently?
