OBJECTIVES To verify whether abdominal pressure during urination represents an important factor in the postoperative development of inguinal hernia after radical retropubic prostatectomy. METHODS Participants comprised 228 patients who underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy without prophylaxis for inguinal herniation between 2002 and 2007. Development of inguinal hernia was assessed from ...
INTRODUCTION Radical retropubic prostatectomy is a therapeutic option for treatment of localized prostate cancer. The goal of radical prostatectomy is to completely remove the tumor while preserving erectile function and urinary continence as well as factors that determine the postoperative quality of life. There are many factors influencing sexual function after radical prostatectomy of locali...
PURPOSE In the initial report of the Lupron Depot Neoadjuvant Prostate Cancer Study Group patients who received 3 months of androgen deprivation had a significant decrease in the positive margin rate. We monitored these patients for 5 years and to our knowledge present the longest followup of any neoadjuvant trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multi-institutional prospective randomized trial was p...
The economics of robotic prostatectomy are very important, considering the fact that prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and radical prostatectomy is one of the main treatments for localized disease. The rapid adoption of robotic prostatectomy has resulted in the widespread availability of robotic systems and significant utilization by surgeons with little prior laparoscopic experi...
PURPOSE To develop a device for sectioning prostatectomy specimens that would facilitate comparison between histology and in vivo MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multi-bladed cutting device was developed, which consists of an adjustable box capable of accommodating a prostatectomy specimen up to 85 mm in size in the lateral direction, a "plunger" tool to press on the excised gland from the top t...
OBJECTIVES Our goal is to analyze the degree of concordance between the Gleason score (GS) obtained in prostate biopsies and the one after radical prostatectomy. The intention is to know whether 12-core biopsy, instead of 6 (sextant biopsy), improves, or not, this correlation. METHODS A Cohort/prevalence study was conducted on 128 patients who underwent prostate biopsy and subsequent radical ...
OBJECTIVES Salvage radiotherapy is the only curative treatment for patients with prostate cancer showing biochemical progression after radical prostatectomy. In this study, we evaluated the clinicopathological parameters that influence the outcome of salvage radiotherapy. METHODS Medical records of 49 patients who underwent salvage radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy from 1997 to 2008 at...
BACKGROUND The best technique of radical prostatectomy - open versus robot-assisted approach - is controversially discussed. In this study, we compared the complication rates of open and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy during the introduction and subsequent routine use of a da Vinci® robotic device while open surgery remained the standard approach. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January 1s...
OBJECTIVE Currently, robotic training for inexperienced, practicing surgeons is primarily done vis-à-vis industry and/or society-sponsored day or weekend courses, with limited proctorship opportunities. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of an extended-proctorship program at up to 32 months of follow-up. METHODS An extended-proctorship program for robotic-assisted laparoscop...
BACKGROUND Radical prostatectomy is associated with excellent long-term disease control for localized prostate cancer. Prior studies have suggested an increased risk of short-term complications among older men who underwent radical prostatectomy, but these studies did not adjust for comorbidity. METHODS We examined mortality and complications occurring within 30 days following radical prostat...
