Radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer increased significantly in England, with a rise in laparoscopic procedures. Higher surgeon and hospital volumes correlated with lower mortality and shorter hospital stays, suggesting care centralization.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Radical prostatectomy (RP) is a primary treatment for localized prostate cancer.
  • Data on RP practice trends and outcomes in England were limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze national trends in radical prostatectomy (RP) practice in England.
  • To assess the relationship between provider volume and patient outcomes following RP.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 14,300 radical prostatectomy (RP) cases using England's Department of Health hospital episode statistics.
  • Examination of national trends, including the adoption of laparoscopic RP and volume-outcome analysis.

Main Results:

  • Annual RPs increased exponentially from 1998-2005, with a rise in laparoscopic procedures.

Retzius-Sparing Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy

Published on: May 19, 2022

  • Median hospital stay decreased significantly, while waiting times increased.
  • Higher hospital and surgeon volumes were associated with significantly lower in-hospital mortality and shorter hospital stays.

    • Conclusions:

    • Radical prostatectomy (RP) practice in England has seen substantial growth and a shift towards laparoscopic techniques.
    • A significant inverse relationship exists between provider volume and outcomes (mortality, hospital stay) for RP.
    • Centralization of complex procedures like RP may improve patient outcomes.
