    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Radical prostatectomy is a primary surgical intervention for prostate cancer.
    • Clinical outcomes and complication profiles require ongoing evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report the outcomes of radical prostatectomy at our institution.
    • To analyze patient demographics, disease stages, survival rates, and surgical complications.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 157 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy.
    • Analysis of patient data including disease stage (A-B and C) and follow-up for survival and complications.

    Main Results:

    • 157 radical prostatectomies performed, with patients primarily in stages A-B, but also including stage C disease.
    • Achieved a five-year survival rate of 90% across the patient cohort.
    • Complications associated with the procedure were documented and are discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • Radical prostatectomy demonstrates high efficacy with a 90% five-year survival rate.
    • The procedure is feasible for patients across various disease stages, including stage C.
    • Further discussion of surgical complications is warranted for comprehensive understanding.
