Between 1970 and 1989, total prostatectomy was performed in 31 patients with prostatic cancer at the Department of Urology, Tokyo Metropolitan Fuchu Hospital. These cases were composed of 4 cases of stage A, 8 cases of stage B and 19 cases of stage C. The surgical procedures were perineal prostatectomy in 25 cases, combined method of perineal and retropubic prostatectomy in 5 cases and transsacral prostatectomy in one case. Blood loss was 762 ml on the average. Blood transfusion was unnecessary in 15 cases all of whom underwent perineal prostatectomy. Endocrine or radiation therapy were administered after total prostatectomy to 23 or 13 cases, respectively. Postoperative complications included early postoperative death due to apoplexy in 1 cases, recto-vesical fistula in 1, bladder neck or urethral stricture in 9 (mild 7, severe 2) and urinary incontinence in 20 (mild 13, moderate 4, severe 3). Frequency and grade of urinary incontinence tended to become higher as the pathological stage progressed. The 5-year survival rates for clinical stage A and B, and C were 83% and 63%, respectively. We conclude that total perineal prostatectomy was less traumatic operation for prostatic cancer, and would be indicated in clinical stage A and B for radical operation and in stage C for one of the combination therapy.

Learning curve analysis of extraperitoneal single-site robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy: a CUSUM-based approach.
J Robot Surg

Department of Urology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, 510230, Guangdong, China.
This study applied cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis to evaluate trends in operative time and blood loss, It aims to identify key milestones in mastering extraperitoneal single-site robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (ss-RARP). A cohort of 100 patients who underwent ss-RARP, performed by a single surgeon at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between March 2021 and June 2023, was retrospectively analyzed. To evaluate the learning curve, the CUSUM (Cumulative Sum Control Chart) technique was applied, revealing the progression and variability over time.

Our objective was to evaluate whether patients from racial and ethnic minority groups and patients from lower SES backgrounds received less appropriate PONV prophylaxis and experienced higher rates of PONV and post-discharge nausea and vomiting (PDNV).
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 23,333 adults who underwent major surgeries (total knee arthroplasty, cholecystectomy, hysterectomy, and prostatectomy) from 2017-2022 in a single, multi-state hospital system.
Advantages of Robotic Total Mesorectal Excision With Partial Prostatectomy Compared With Open Surgery for Rectal Cancer: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study.
Asian J Endosc Surg

Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Institute of Science Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan.
Aim: Robotic total mesorectal excision (TME) with resection of adjacent organs has been increasingly used for locally advanced rectal cancer; however, few studies have focused on robotic TME with partial prostatectomy. Therefore, this study aimed to demonstrate the advantages of robotic TME with partial prostatectomy compared with open surgery for rectal cancer.
Method: This retrospective cohort study examined consecutive patients with rectal cancer who underwent robotic or open TME with partial prostatectomy at a high-volume center in Japan from April 2003 to March 2022.

To prove the feasibility of continuous spinal extraperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (cseRALP) in order to expand the pool of eligible patients. : According to IDEAL guidelines, a consecutive cohort of patients who underwent cseRALP was enrolled. Pre-, intra-, and post-operative data were collected, with particular focus on safety and oncological outcomes.

Higher intraoperative opioid doses may be associated with worse long-term oncological outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer. We aimed to evaluate the impact of higher doses of intraoperative opioids and type of anesthesia on biochemical recurrence (BCR) and mortality after RP in a high-volume tertiary center. All patients underwent RP at our center between 2015 and 2021.
