Overview

Retrospective cohort study compares recovery outcomes of post-prostatectomy incontinence across three techniques, suggesting recovery benefits.

Key Points

  • The aim is to compare early and long-term recovery outcomes of post-prostatectomy incontinence among different robotic prostatectomy techniques.
  • Retrospective cohort study of 79 patients undergoing RARP at a single tertiary center.
  • Patients categorized into RS-RARP (n=19), 2-layer RARP (n=30), and 3-layer RARP (n=30).
  • Outcomes measured at immediate, 1, 3, and 6 months, with statistical analysis using ANOVA and Chi-square tests.
  • Excellent long-term continence rates (≥ 96.7% at 6 months) were seen in all groups (p=0.723).
  • RS-RARP showed a borderline statistical advantage in early recovery (89.5% immediate recovery vs 60.0%, p=0.049).
  • Significant difference in mean bladder neck angle was found (RS-RARP: 128.5°, 2-layer: 107.7°, 3-layer: 120.1°, p=0.001).
