“…Accurate preoperative imaging can also allow partial robotic prostatectomy [18] , with potential preservation of some portion(s) of the gland if the surrounding prostatic tissue is shown to be benign.…”

The most recent revolution in our understanding and knowledge of the human body is the introduction of new technologies allowing direct magnified vision of internal organs, as in laparoscopy and robotics. The possibility of viewing an anatomical detail, until now not directly visible during open surgical operations and only partially during dissections of cadavers, has created a ‘new surgical anatomy’. Consequent refinements of operative techniques, combined with better views of the surgical field, have given rise to continual and significant decreases in complication rates and improved functional and oncological outcomes. The possibility of exploring new ways of approaching organs to be treated now allows us to reinforce our anatomical knowledge and plan novel surgical approaches. The present review aims to clarify some of these issues.

“…Complications of radical prostatectomy, such as erectile dysfunction, chronic urinary incontinence, and the occasional bladder neck contracture, are well documented in the current literature . These complications arise because of the close proximity of the neurovascular bundle and the rhabdosphincter to the surgical dissection plane, which increases the risk of injury to these structures.…”

As a result of ergonomics, optimal magnification of the operative field, surgeon dexterity, and precision of surgical manipulation, robotic technology has been shown to overcome many difficulties associated with pure laparoscopy. With the recent expansion of robot-assisted surgery in the field of urology and following the success of robot-assisted prostatectomy and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy, robot-assisted surgery is being applied to treat many other genitourinary diseases, such as bladder cancer and ureteropelvic junction obstruction. The aim of the present review is to discuss the role of robotic surgery in urology and summarize recent developments in the field of urologic robotic surgery.

“…Surgical removal of the APCs, for example, by partial prostatectomy, has been proposed as an alternative treatment for energy‐based ablation of localized PCa. In a recent study, Villers et al . reported on a case series of patients with low‐ and intermediate‐risk PCa who underwent robot‐assisted anterior partial prostatectomy, with excellent functional outcomes .…”
