Radical extra-aponeurotic prostatectomy offers excellent cancer removal for localized prostate cancer with low positive margin rates and incontinence. Nerve-sparing techniques should be reserved for select patients due to higher oncological failure risks.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Radical extra-aponeurotic prostatectomy is a key surgical option for localized prostate cancer.
  • Assessing oncological and functional outcomes is crucial for treatment selection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of radical extra-aponeurotic prostatectomy.
  • To compare outcomes with nerve-sparing prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of patients undergoing radical extra-aponeurotic prostatectomy.
  • Assessment of positive specimen margins and post-operative incontinence rates.

Main Results:

  • Low incidence of positive specimen margins (4.6%).
  • Low rate of total incontinence (3.5%).

  • Nerve-sparing prostatectomy associated with a high risk of oncological failure.

    • Conclusions:

    • Radical extra-aponeurotic prostatectomy provides effective cancer ablation with acceptable functional outcomes.
    • Nerve-sparing prostatectomy is indicated only in carefully selected patients due to oncological risks.
