Feasibility, safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with a new robotic surgical system: a prospective, controlled, randomized clinical trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) gains increasing popularity in the surgical management of prostate cancer (PCa) but is challenged by its prohibitive expense. A domestic robotic system has been developed to address this issue, but data comparing the self-developed robot with the widely used robot is lacking. We performed a randomized clinical trial to compare KD-SR-01^® and DaVinci^® robots in terms of perioperative, short-term oncological and functional outcomes in RARP.

Materials and methods

We prospectively enrolled patients with clinically localized PCa. Patients were randomized to undergo either KD-SR-01^®-RARP (K-RARP) or DaVinci^®-RARP (D-RARP) by the same surgical team. The baseline, perioperative, short-t
