Retrograde Perfusion Sphinterometry and Autologous Sling to Improve Urinary Continence in Robotic Radical Prostatectomy

NCT03050996 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Urinary continence recovery remains one of the most bothersome side effect of modern radical prostate surgery and several technical modifications, especially in Robotic assisted radical prostatectomy procedures, have been reported in order to improve early urinary continence recovery.

With the aim to improve the urinary continence recovery after robotic prostatectomy, we evaluate the impact of the use of a 6-branch retropubic suburethral autologous sling, created and placed during the procedure, in association with intraoperative evaluation of the retrograde leak point pressure by means of retrograde perfusion sphincterometry for proper sling tensioning.
