- - The study assessed the effectiveness of the NeuroSAFE technique during robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) in British men, analyzing data from 417 procedures over several years.
- - Results showed that patients in the NeuroSAFE group had higher-risk prostate cancer but achieved better outcomes, including lower rates of positive surgical margins and higher rates of postoperative potency and continence.
- - Overall, the findings suggest that the NeuroSAFE technique resulted in improved surgical and functional results compared to traditional nerve-sparing approaches without NeuroSAFE.
