摘要Purpose of review
Urinary incontinence is common postoperative complication following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa). Despite the increasing adoption of RARP in the treatment of high-risk PCa (HRPC), concerns persist regarding the adequacy of reported continence outcomes in this subgroup. This review aims to illuminate the state of continence recovery in HRPC patients post-RARP.
Recent findings
Urinary continence (UC) recovery rates in HRPC was reported to be lower than the intermediate/low-risk counterparts from 6 to 24 months post-RARP. Predictive models showed that age, obesity, race, disease status, and surgical approaches represent predictors of continence recovery. Special techniques like NeuroSAFE technique and Retzius-Sparing approach also play a role in reducing incontinence also in the high-risk scenario.
Summary
RARP for HRPC appears to be associated with worse continence compared with other risk groups. A multimodality approach for prediction and prevention of incontinence after RARP is vital. Further research into this area is necessary to enhance continence recovery outcomes in HRPC patients undergoing RARP.
