Although originally demonstrated in open prostatectomy procedures, sparing the NVB as described by Walsh, et al, has been shown to be equally, and in some reported literature, more effective in preserving potency and continence outcomes when the laparoscopic or robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) approach is utilized. ...
Introduction & Objectives Efforts to improve continence after robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) have focused on preserving periurethral and bladder neck tissue and techniques involving posterior reconstructions and anterior suspensions. ...
Introduction The first laparoscopic cholecystectomy was reported in 1987, introducing an era of minimally invasive surgery for this common procedure. Advantages of the laparoscopic approach include reduced postoperative pain and recovery time and improved cosmesis.17 Since its introduction, the laparoscopic approach has been modified to reduce ...
