Methods: A single-surgeon RARP database of 1082 men who underwent prospective UF testing was analyzed. Men filled out International Prostate Symptom Score questionnaires and underwent uroflowmetry and post-void bladder ultrasound before surgery and at each follow-up visit.
Objective: To assist in preoperative counseling by assessing long-term changes in American Urological Association symptom scores (AUAss) and lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS)-related quality of life (QOL) in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
Materials And Methods: RARP was performed on 666 men by one surgeon from 2002 to 2007 at a single institution. AUAss and QOL were queried preoperatively and at 3, 9, 15, 24-48, 60-84, and 96+ months postoperatively.
Purpose: Longitudinal assessment of prostatic obstruction has historically been assessed with urinary peak flow rates (PFR). In this observational study, we assess the impact of prostate removal on preoperative and postoperative PFRs after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
Patients And Methods: A single surgeon (TA) performed RARPs between 2002 and 2007.
