Popis: | Objectives To evaluate the NeuroSAFE technique in a British setting in men undergoing RALP. Patients and Methods We retrospectively analysed our prospectively maintained database of patients who underwent RALP between Nov 2008 and Feb 2017. We examined preoperative pathological and functional parameters, intra-operative nerve sparing, post-operative histology as well as functional and oncological follow-up. We compared those who had a NeuroSAFE approach and those who had nerve sparing without NeuroSAFE. We also compared all the RALPs before and after the introduction of NeuroSAFE. Statistical analysis was done using the two tailed T-test and Chi-Squared analysis. Results This single surgeon series included 417 RALPs including 120 NeuroSAFEs. The NeuroSAFE cohort had a greater proportion of D'Amico high risk disease (30.8% vs 9.6%, p |
