Summary

To investigate the relationship between post-operative bladder neck levels and urodynamic parameters and their effect on urinary incontinence after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP). Forty-eight consecutive patients undergoing LRP were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had investigated by retrograde cystography after LRP and were grouped according their bladder neck position: Level 0: bladder neck at or above the superior margin of the symphysis pubis (SMSP), Level -1: bladder neck at \<2 cm below SMSP, and Level -2: bladder neck at \>2 cm below SMSP. Urodynamic studies were carried out at baseline, 3 and 6 months post-operatively. Early recovery of urinary continence was defined as no urine leakage or only one pad/day used within 3 months after surgery. Demographic characteristics, changes of urodynamic parameters and continence outcomes were analyzed.
