  • Preserving neurovascular bundles is crucial for post-operative function.

Purpose:

  • To describe a surgical technique for radical prostatectomy.
  • To detail methods for sparing the sphincter and neurovascular bundles.
  • To report outcomes in a small patient cohort.

Summary:

  • The study presents a radical prostatectomy technique designed to preserve the external sphincter and posterolateral neurovascular bundles.
  • This approach aims to maintain urinary continence and erectile function post-surgery.
  • The technique was applied to 13 patients, yielding favorable results.

Impact:

  • Highlights the importance of nerve-sparing techniques in radical prostatectomy.
  • Emphasizes the need for early prostate cancer detection through regular screenings.
  • Contributes to improved quality of life for patients undergoing prostate cancer surgery.
