The Retrograde Extraperitoneal Approach: Robotic Retrograde Extraperitoneal Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RRELP)

  • 1145 Accesses

Abstract

It is possible with the da Vinci robot to reproduce exactly the surgical protocol of an open retropubic prostatectomy and to give to the patient all the advantages of mini-invasive surgery.
