Neurovascular bundle preservation in robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy: How I do it after 15. 000 cases

Int. braz. j. urol; 48 (2), 2022
ABSTRACT Despite the neuroanatomy knowledge of the prostate described initially in the 1980's and the robotic surgery advantages in terms of operative view magnification, potency outcomes following robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy still challenge surgeons and patients due to its multifactorial etio...

Minimally invasive lymphocele drainage using the Da Vinci® single port platform: step-by- step technique

Int. braz. j. urol; 48 (2), 2022
ABSTRACT Background: Reports in the literature describe lymphocele formation in up to half of patients following pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) (1) in robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), with 1-2% requiring intervention (2). The advantage of surgical approach is permanent excision of the...

Nerve-sparing robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy: how I do it after 15. 000 cases

Int. braz. j. urol; 48 (2), 2022
ABSTRACT Introduction: Over the years, since Binder and Kramer described the first Robotic-assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) in 2000, different Nerve-sparing (NS) techniques have been proposed by several authors (1). However, even with the robotic surgery advantages, functional outcomes following RA...

Effects of perioperative pelvic floor muscle training on early recovery of urinary continence and erectile function in men undergoing radical prostatectomy: a randomized clinical trial

Int. braz. j. urol; 45 (6), 2019
ABSTRACT Aims: Radical prostatectomy (RP) can result in urinary incontinence (UI) and erectile dysfunction (ED), which negatively impact quality of life (QoL). This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a perioperative pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) program versus usual care on early recovery of u...
