MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 48 patients (mean age 64 years) underwent LRP in our institution between August 2014 and July 2018. Two surgeons completed a fellowship training program for LRP before. Mentored operations started after the first 10 cases. The patients were divided in two groups of 30 (group I) and 18 (group II) patients. Demographic, preoperative, peroperative, and postoperative data were collected prospectively. Anesthesiology and nurses’ team performances, as well as problems and their management, were reviewed. RESULTS: The demographic data for both groups (group I vs. group II) were similar.
