In this older group of patients, concomitant prostate cancer is not uncommon. However, the fibrosis and distortion of the prostate anatomy by prior TURP can potentially hinder surgical efficacy at robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). In this scenario, the literature still lacks robust evidence of patients with previous TURP undergoing RARP. We attempted to evaluate functional and oncologic outcomes of RARP in patients with and without previous TURP. METHODS: 231 men with previous TURP underwent RARP (TURP group). These men were propensity score matched (1:3) using clinicopathological characteristics to men without previous TURP who underwent RARP (Control group). Perioperative and postoperative variables were analysed for significant differences in outcomes between groups. RESULTS: Median follow up=60 months for both groups (p=0.8). No statistically significant differences in operative measures including median EBL (100 vs. 100 mL), operative time (80 vs. 80 min), catheter time (5 vs. 5 days), hospitalization time (1 vs. 1 day), or postoperative complications. We found no significant difference between the groups in terms of potency rates (HR=0.8, 95% CI 0.49 1.36, p=0.4) and continence rates (HR=0.98, 95% CI 0.82 1.15, p=0.7). Furthermore, there were no statistically significant differences in oncological outcomes, including PSM rates (15% vs 18%, p=0.3) and biochemical recurrence (HR=1.11, 95% CI 0.76 1.62, p=0.6). CONCLUSIONS: In RARP after TURP there is often noticeable distortion of the surgical anatomy. Even in this older age group of patients, for an experienced team the procedure is safe and provides similar oncologic control and functional outcomes to RARP in patients without previous TURP.
