    Summary

    The transpubic approach, particularly clinoid resection of pubic bones, offers superior surgical access to the prostate apex and urethral membranous part. This method ensures better surgical angles and preserves pelvic ring integrity, avoiding orthopedic complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Anatomy
    • Orthopedics

    Background:

    • Surgical access to the prostate apex and urethral membranous part is challenging due to their deep pelvic location.
    • Traditional approaches may offer limited maneuverability and visualization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the transpubic and low-median surgical approaches for radical prostatectomy.
    • To determine the optimal transpubic approach variant for improved surgical outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • A cadaveric study involving 50 male subjects was conducted.
    • Comparative analysis of transpubic and low-median approaches using specific anatomical parameters.
    • Evaluation of surgical angles and visualization in different approaches.

    Main Results:

    • The transpubic approach provides significantly better surgical angles (25-30 degrees greater) and incline angles (80-90 degrees) compared to the low-median approach.
    • Clinoid resection of pubic bones within the transpubic approach preserves pelvic ring integrity.
    • The low-median approach is less effective for larger prostates (>30 cm³) or high symphysis (>7 cm).

    Conclusions:

    • The transpubic approach, especially clinoid resection, is optimal for prostatectomy, offering adequate access and preserving pelvic stability.
    • Transpubic approach facilitates thorough prostatectomy while minimizing orthopedic complications.
    • Surgical methods compromising pelvic ring integrity are disadvantageous.
