Summary

Placement of an autologous retropubic urethral sling at the time of robot assisted radical prostatectomy will improve the recovery of continence after radical prostatectomy

Conditions

  • Men With Prostate Cancer Undergoing Robot Assisted Radical Prostatectomy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Placement of sling

Placement of a retropubic urethral sling will involve dissection and harvesting of the right and left vas deferens, which we will be taken out of the body by the bed side assistant who will suture the two vas deferens together in a side to side fashion with the smaller of the two vas deferens placed in the middle of the larger one. A single 3-0 V-lock suture on a CV23 needle will be placed through one end of the vas sling and then passed into the body by the bed side assistant. The sling will then be placed on the rectum below the site of the vesicourethral anastamosis and the anastamosis will be completed. The sling will then be placed around the vesicourethral anastomosis, suspended to the pubic symphysis and tensioned to allow elevation of the vesicourethral anastomosis.
