Posterior Reconstruction and Outcomes of Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy in a High-Risk Setting

Abstract

PDR is associated with a lower degree of anastomotic leakage, and it significantly enhances urinary continence at 1 and 3 mo. The increased adjuvant radiotherapy rate and quality of life after surgery observed with our technique suggest that in the high-risk setting an early functional recovery may substantially influence the oncologic outcome of eLRP.
