Article Synopsis
- This review assesses the impact of robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) on male stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and erectile dysfunction (ED), highlighting the significant quality-of-life challenges these conditions present.
- It emphasizes the importance of patient history in determining treatment strategies, suggesting that penile rehabilitation may help improve erectile function post-surgery, though specific programs for optimal recovery are not yet agreed upon.
- The review concludes that effective treatments for post-RALP SUI include both adjustable slings and artificial urinary sphincters, while future research should focus on enhancing treatment methods and patient compliance for better outcomes.
