Sustainable long-term results on postoperative sexual activity after radical prostatectomy when a clinical sexologist is included in the sexual rehabilitation process. A retrospective study on 7 years postoperative outcome.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective evaluation of long-term sustainability of a postoperative combined penile and sexual rehabilitation program involving a clinical sexologist (CS) for preoperative fully potent men undergoing daVinci robotic radical prostatectomy (dVRP) regardless of whether preservation of the neurovascular bundles was performed or not.

Material And Methods: The study included 79 preoperatively potent and sexually active patients (aged 45-74 years, mean 61) that had undergone a dVRP due to localized prostate cancer and during the 1 postoperative year participated in a combined penile and sexual rehabilitation program involving a CS. The subjects were followed up with the same interview and questionnaires at approximately 1, 3 and 7 years postoperatively.

Improvement in sexual function after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: A rehabilitation program with involvement of a clinical sexologist.

Introduction: To prospectively evaluate if the inclusion of a clinical sexologist in a penile and sexual rehabilitation program improves sexual function one year after prostate cancer surgery.

Material And Methods: Twelve months after da Vinci Radical Prostatectomy (dVRP) for prostate cancer, 28 fully potent (IIEF-5 >21) and sexually active men (ages 47-69 years, mean 61) who, in 2008, were enrolled in a prospectively monitored penile rehabilitation program (reference group) were compared with 79 fully potent (IIEF-5 >21) and sexually active men (ages 45-74 years, mean 61) enrolled in 2009 (study group); whose program differed by the inclusion of evaluation and treatment by a clinical sexologist.

Results: Twelve months after dVRP, seventeen patients in the reference group (61%) were sexually active with regular penetrating sexual activity compared to sixty-six (84%) in the study group (p = 0.
