Project description:Background: Our aim is to describe Gallucci's (VV-G) technique for vesicourethral anastomosis and posterior musculofascial reconstruction (PMFR) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and to assess early urinary continence recovery and perioperative outcomes. VV-G consists of a "single knot-single running suture" vesicourethral anastomosis with PMFR. Methods: Between September 2019 and October 2021, we prospectively compared VV-G vs. conventional Van Velthoven anastomosis (VV-STD) during RARP. We excluded patients with urinary incontinence, pelvic radiotherapy, and urethral and BPH surgery prior to RARP. Social continence (SC) recovery, perioperative complications, and length of hospital stay (LOS) were compared between VV-G vs. VV-STD. SC was defined as 0-1 pad/die. We applied 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) adjusting for different covariates (age, Charlson Comorbidity Index, BMI, prostate volume, nerve-sparing and lymph node dissection). Results: From 166 patients, 1:1 PSM resulted in two equally sized groups of 40 patients each with no residual differences (all p ≥ 0.2). VV-G yielded higher 3-month SC rates than VV-STD (97.5 vs. 55.0%, p < 0.001). A tiny difference was still recorded at one-year follow-up (97.5 vs. 80.0%, p = 0.029, HR: 2.90, 95% CI: 1.74-4.85, p < 0.001). Conversely, we observed no differences in any perioperative complications (15.0 vs. 22.5%, OR: 0.61, 95% CI 0.19-1.88, p = 0.4) and LOS (3 vs. 4 days, Δ: -0.69 ± 0.61, p = 0.1). Conclusions: VV-G significantly improved early SC recovery without increasing perioperative morbidity. In our opinion, VV-G represents an easy-to-learn and easy-to-teach technique due to its single-suture, single-knot, and symmetrical design.

Project description:BackgroundPosterior urethral stricture disease presents challenges for even the most skilled reconstructive urologists. Regardless of the surgical technique used, these are complex operations that occur in hard-to-access locations. We describe the use of a novel combination of laparoscopic instrumentation to simplify posterior urethral reconstruction.MethodsWe retrospectively identified patients undergoing a posterior urethral stricture repair utilizing a combination of the RD-180® suture device and the Securestrap®. These procedures were performed by a single surgeon at our institution. Patients with greater than or equal to 4 months of follow up were included in the analysis.ResultsFrom October 2016 to October 2020, 20 patients underwent posterior urethral stricture repair using these laparoscopic instruments. Median age was 70 years (28-90 years). Median follow up was 12 months (5-50 months). Mean stricture length was 3 cm (1.5-16 cm). Median operative time was 150 minutes (120-180 minutes). No peripheral neuropathies or positional injuries were noted. With failure defined as inability to pass a 16-Fr scope, success rate was 95% (19/20 patients).ConclusionsThe combination of the RD-180® and the Securestrap® has become essential to our posterior urethral stricture repair armamentarium. Further data and longer follow up is needed to confirm these reliable outcomes.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the outcome of patients underwent anatomic periurethral reconstruction during robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP).Materials and methodsDuring August 2016 to May 2018, periurethral structure anatomic reconstruction was performed during RARP in 58 consecutive patients. The control group consists of another 50 patients had no reconstruction procedure during RARP. Perioperative data of these patients were collected retrospectively, including operation time, anastomosis time, intraoperative blood loss, duration of indwelling catheter, length of hospital stay, complications, postoperative pathology, and continence outcome at 1,3,6 and 12 months.ResultsAll cases were successfully performed without conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery. There were no major intraoperative or postoperative complications.The percentage of patients maintain continence in the reconstruction group versus non-reconstruction group: At 1 month 84.5% (49/58)versus 70.0% (35/50), at 3 months 89.7% (52/58)versus 78.0% (39/50), at 6 months 91.3% (53/58)versus 86.0% (43/50) and 1 year after surgery 100.0% (58/58)versus 96.0% (48/50). Reconstruction group showed better continence outcome in 1 and 3 months (P<0.05). There is no statistical differences in 6 month and 1 year.ConclusionAnatomic reconstruction of periurethral structure during RARP is safe and feasible with reduced duration of indwelling catheter and better continence outcome.

Project description:BackgroundOrthotopic neobladder reconstruction has become the preferred method of urinary diversion after radical cystectomy in major medical centers. We performed modified Y-shaped ileal orthotopic neobladder reconstruction and presented the functional results and postoperative complications of the modified surgery.MethodsWe included 21 patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystectomy at our center between February 2019 and December 2019. All patients underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy and lymph node dissection plus modified Y-shaped ileal orthotopic neobladder reconstruction. We collected the demographic and pathological history of the patients, and perioperative and postoperative functional outcomes and postoperative complications were recorded.ResultsAll surgeries were successful and no serious postoperative complications occurred. The mean operative time was 321.43 ± 54.75 min, including 101.67 ± 10.88 min required for neobladder reconstruction. Liquid intake was encouraged about 5 days after surgery, stent and catheter were removed after 13.52 ± 3.28 days, and the patients were discharged 1-2 days after removing the catheter. No ureteral anastomotic and neobladder urethral anastomotic strictures occurred. The volume of the neobladder at 1-year post-surgery was 195.24 ± 16.07 mL and the maximum urinary flow rate was 20.64 ± 2.22 mL/s.ConclusionWe describe the robotic-assisted modified Y-shaped ileal orthotopic neobladder reconstruction performed at our center, which requires a simple suture and short neobladder construction time, minimizes the occurrence of anastomotic stenosis, facilitates smooth patient emptying, and is clinically scalable and applicable.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the pathological and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed by one surgeon at a single center.SubjectsWe evaluated 700 patients with localized prostate cancer (i.e., 250 received LRP and 450 received RARP) in the study. The clinicopathological outcomes, positive surgical margin (PSM) frequency, and biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival were compared between LRP and RARP.ResultsAt diagnosis, the median patient age and level of prostate-specific antigsen in the serum for LRP were 68 years and 8.1 ng/ml, respectively, while those for RARP were 66 years and 7.7 ng/ml, respectively. In the LRP group, the overall PSM rate was 31.2% (11.1% for pT2a, 19.0% for pT2b, 25.0% for pT2c, 60.0% for pT3a, 64.3% for pT3b, and 50% for pT4). In the RARP group, the overall PSM rate was 20.7% (4.8% for pT2a, 15.9% for pT2b, 12.9% for pT2c, 36.9% for pT3a, 46.2% for pT3b, and 100% for pT4). The PSM rate was significantly lower for RARP in men with pT2c, pT3a, or pT3b disease (p = 0.006, p = 0.009, and p = 0.027, respectively). Based on the multivariate analysis, RARP reduced the risk of BCR (hazard ratio = 0.8, p = 0.014).ConclusionsWe compared the pathological findings and rates of BCR-free survival between patients who received LRP and those who received RARP at a single center. The rate of BCR-free survival was significantly higher in men classified as D'Amico high-risk patients who received RARP versus that reported in D'Amico high-risk patients who received LRP.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of our study is to evaluate the prevalence and predictive factors of short- (30 d) and mid-term continence in a contemporary cohort of patients treated with robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) without any posterior or anterior reconstruction at our referral academic center.MethodsData from patients undergoing RALP between January 2017 and March 2021 were prospectively collected. RALP was performed by three highly experienced surgeons following the principles of the Montsouris technique, with a bladder-neck-sparing intent and maximal preservation of the membranous urethra (if oncologically safe) without any anterior/posterior reconstruction. (Self-assessed urinary incontinence (UI) was defined as the need of one or more pads per die (excluding the need for a safety pad/die. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to assess the independent predictors of early incontinence among routinely collected patient- and tumor-related variables).ResultsA total of 925 patients were included; of these, 353 underwent RALP (38.2%) without nerve-sparing intent. The median patient age and BMI were 68 years (IQR 63-72) and 26 (IQR 24.0-28.0), respectively. Overall, 159 patients (17.2%) reported early (30 d) incontinence. In multivariable analysis adjusting for patient- and tumor-related features, a non-nerve-sparing procedure (OR: 1.57 [95% CI: 1.03-2.59], p = 0.035) was independently associated with the risk of urinary incontinence in the short-term period, while the absence of cardiovascular diseases before surgery (OR: 0.46 [95% CI: 0.320.67], p ≤ 0.01) was a protective factor for this outcome. At a median follow-up of 17 months (IQR 10-24), 94.5% of patients reported to be continent.ConclusionsIn experienced hands, most patients fully recover urinary continence after RALP at mid-term follow-up. On the contrary, the proportion of patients who reported early incontinence in our series was modest but not negligible. The implementation of surgical techniques advocating anterior and/or posterior fascial reconstruction might improve the early continence rate in candidates for RALP.

Project description:Unidirectional barbed suture (UBS) has been widely used for surgery in recent years, especially for urethrovesical anastomosis (UVA) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). However, the efficacy and safety comparing it with conventional non-barbed suture (CS) for UVA is still controversial.The objective of this study is to assess the current evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of UBS compared with CS for UVA during RARP.We comprehensively searched PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, SinoMed (Chinese) and other databases on Oct. 9, 2014 to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and other comparative studies evaluating these two types of suture. The outcome measures included anastomosis time operative time, posterior reconstruction (PR) time, postoperative leakage (PL) rate and continence rates at different time points (4-6 weeks, 3 months, 6-12 months) after surgery. Secondary outcomes included estimated blood loss (EBL) and length of catheterization (LOC).Three RCTs and six observational studies including 786 cases were identified. Meta-analysis of extractable data showed that use of UBS could significantly reduce anastomosis time (weighted mean difference [WMD]:-3.98min; 95% confidence interval [CI], -6.02 -1.95; p = 0.0001), operative time (WMD:-10.06min; 95% CI, -15.45--4.67; p = 0.0003) and PR time (WMD:-0.93min; 95% CI, -1.52--0.34; p = 0.002). No significant difference was found in PL rate, EBL, LOC, or continence rates at 4-6 weeks, 3 months and 6-12 months after surgery.Our meta-analysis indicates that UBS appears to be safe and efficient as CS for UVA during RARP with not only shorter anastomosis time, operative time, PR time, but also equivalent PL rate, EBL, LOC, and continence rates at 4-6 weeks, 3 months and 6-12 months after surgery. For the inherent limitations of the eligible studies, future more persuasive RCTs are needed to confirm and update our findings.

Project description:BackgroundTo compare the postoperative continence and clinical outcomes of Retzius-sparing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RS-RALP) with non-RS RALP for patients with prostate cancer.MethodsWe searched PUBMED, EMBASE and the Cochrane Central Register from 1999 to 2019 for studies comparing RS-RALP to non-RS RALP for the treatment of prostate cancer. We used RevMan 5.2 to pool the data.ResultsA total of seven studies involving 1620 patients were included in our meta-analysis. No significant difference was found in positive surgical margins (PSM), bilateral nerve-sparing, postoperative hernia, complications, blood loss, or operative time. Postoperative continence was better with RS-RALP compared with non-RS RALP (OR = 1.02, OR: 2.86, 95% CI 1.94-4.20, p < 0.05).ConclusionsRS-RALP had a better recovery of postoperative continence than non-RS RALP. The perioperative outcomes were comparable for the two methods.

Project description:Robotic radical prostatectomy is a new innovation in the surgical treatment of prostate cancer. The technique is continuously evolving. In this article we demonstrate The Ohio State University technique for robotic radical prostatectomy. Robotic radical prostatectomy is performed using the da Vinci surgical system. The video demonstrates each step of the surgical procedure. Preliminary results with robotic prostatectomy demonstrate the benefits of minimally invasive surgery while also showing encouraging short-term outcomes in terms of continence, potency and cancer control. Robotic radical prostatectomy is an evolving technique that provides a minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of prostate cancer. Our experience with the procedure now stands at over 1,300 cases.
