چکیده
This timely paper reviews the current status and respective roles of laparoscopic, robotically-assisted and open radical prostatectomy in the management of localized prostate cancer. While open radical prostatectomy remains the gold standard of treatment, a minimally-invasive approach has been available since 1997 in the form of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Minimally-invasive approaches to radical

A comparison of the incidence and location of positive surgical margins in robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and open retropubic radical prostatectomy.
PURPOSE Surgical technique, patient characteristics and method of pathological review may influence surgical margin status. We evaluated the incidence and location of positive surgical margins in 200 sequential robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and 200 sequential open radical retropubic prostatectomy cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS From July 2002 until December 2006 a total of ...
متن کاملComparison of Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic and Mini-Laparotomy Radical Prostatectomy in Prostate Cancer Treatment in Taiwan
The incidence of prostate cancer in Taiwan has increased in recent years, possible because of better detection with screening methods, such as the measurement of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, transrectal ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Most of the cases that are diagnosis early are operable and were, therefore, treated surgically. Historically, open radical prostatect...
متن کاملCyberKnife Ablation of a Solitary Para-Aortic Lymph Node Metastasis After Robotic-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy
Introduction: Radical prostatectomy is an effective curative treatment option for organ-confined prostate cancer. There is a recent trend in offering curative treatment to patients with oligometastatic disease. More sensitive imaging modalities can identify oligometastatic disease that is not usually detected by conventional imaging techniques. Case presentation: We present a case in which a s...
متن کاملRobotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy.
BACKGROUND The use of radical prostatectomy for the treatment of prostate cancer has been increasing during the last decade partially due to the widespread adoption of the robotic-assisted laparoscopic technique. Although no prospective, randomized controlled trials have compared open radical prostatectomy (ORP) with robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP), numerous comparat...
