Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) is a standard treatment for localized prostate cancer.
  • The transperitoneal approach is common, but an extraperitoneal approach offers potential advantages.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the initial experience and technique of extraperitoneal RALP.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and early outcomes of this approach.

Main Methods:

  • A total of 27 patients underwent extraperitoneal RALP between September 2010 and January 2012.
  • A five-port technique was employed, developing the extraperitoneal space behind the posterior rectus sheath.
  • Standard surgical steps were followed after accessing the endopelvic fascia and ligating the deep venous complex.

Main Results:

  • The mean patient age was 67 years, with a mean prostate size of 45g and Gleason score of 6.
  • Mean console time was 94 minutes, with no conversions to transperitoneal or open surgery.
  • Continence rates were 83.33% at 6 months and 92.4% at 12 months, with low rates of positive surgical margins and biochemical recurrence.

Conclusions:

  • Extraperitoneal RALP is a viable and effective minimally invasive surgical option.
  • This approach demonstrates good functional outcomes, including urinary continence.
  • It offers a safe alternative for treating localized prostate cancer.
