The influence of previous robotic experience in the initial learning curve of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

Introduction: This study analyzed the impact of the experience with Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP) on the initial experience with Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (LRP) by examining perioperative results and early outcomes of 110 patients. LRPs were performed by two ro-botic fellowship trained surgeons with daily practice in RALP.

Patients And Methods: 110 LRP were performed to treat aleatory selected patients.
