“…Although the severity of urinary incontinence often decreases with time after RP [6][7][8], previous studies have demonstrated that 8% to 87% of patients still experience urinary incontinence at six months and 5% to 44.5% remain incontinent at one to two years after surgery [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Moreover, up to 50% of patients report some degree of incontinence two years after RP [3], even after pelvic fl oor muscle exercise intervention.…”

“…Predictive factors for postoperative and postradiotherapy LUTS are summarised in Table 2 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26. Known risk factors such as prior transurethral resection have been well evidenced, but probable risk factors such as central nervous system damage and/or cognitive impairment is less well defined in the cancer population but is essential in the assessment of LUTS.…”
