Comparison of Oncological Results, Functional Outcomes, and Complications for Transperitoneal Versus Extraperitoneal Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Single Surgeon's Experience

Abstract

The EP approach has similar oncological and perioperative results, less postoperative pain, less bowel-associated complication, and better functional outcomes than those of the TP approach. The EP approach may be an important alternative in robotic radical prostatectomy.
