Context: There is a growing interest about the role of radical prostatectomy (RP) in local cancer control in oligometastatic prostate cancer (PCa).

Purpose: To evaluate the oncological and functional outcomes of RP in the management of oligometastatic PCa through a systematic review.

[Erectile function and sexuality of partners after radical prostatectomy with robotics versus manual laparoscopy: long-term assessment].

Objective: To compare the long-term sexual outcome of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) vs robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP).

Patients And Methods: A questionnaire was sent to the 412 patients treated by the same surgeon by LRP or RALP from March 2004 to July 2009. Ninety-six patients were evaluated preoperatively with a good erectile function before surgery and a follow-up more than 24 months.
