摘要
Over the past years, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has emerged as an attractive, exciting, and new approach for the surgical treatment of localized prostate cancer. Several centers in Europe and the United States have developed their own technique and have already published their first results. Two main routes have been used, namely, the transperitoneal and extraperitoneal approaches. Data from the literature and available experience demonstrate that this laparoscopic procedure is feasible and teachable and that oncologic and functional results seem comparable to those of classic open radical prostatectomy. Minimal bleeding, reduced blood transfusion rates, shorter hospitalization, and shorter recovery time are unquestionable advantages for laparoscopic procedures. Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy remains a difficult intervention and should be performed in selected centers with experienced teams who already have extensive laparoscopic experience and who recruit enough patients to grant them the proper amount of expertise. This is the only way to achieve excellence in terms of oncologic and functional results. © 2002, Current Science Inc.
