The Role of Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in High-Risk Prostate Cancer.
Journal of Endourology 2017 March
Prostate cancer (PCa) is stratified into different risk categories based on the patient's prognosis. High-risk disease was formerly characterized by an increased risk of metastasis and lethality, requiring complex treatments. Surgery was recently highlighted to have a pivotal role for the treatment of such cases, even as monotherapy. In the past, open radical prostatectomy was performed for most patients with high-risk PCa; however, robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) emerged as a reasonable option because it provided optimal outcomes for low- and intermediate-risk PCa. Robust studies are lacking to properly assess the role of RARP for high-risk PCa. We summarize this knowledge and present a literature review on the perioperative recovery and functional and oncologic outcomes of RARP for the treatment of patients with high-risk PCa.
