Abstract:Background: We developed a novel surgical technique: dissection of the retrotrigonal layer from a posterior approach in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). This approach enables earlier access to the posterior space during bladder neck dissection and helps preserve the bladder neck. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of this technique in terms of bladder neck preservation Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 238 consecutive patients who underwent RARP using this technique from August 2021 to Septemb… Show more
