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.
