Prostate surgery mainly addresses the treatment of the two most common pathologies of the prostate: benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), symptomatic or complicated, and prostate cancer (PCa). The objective of this manuscript was to present after review of the literature the main intraoperative and postoperative surgical complications associated with radical prostatectomy and surgery of the BPH whatever the surgical approach. The incidence and type of these complications may vary depending on the patient's comorbidities and the type of surgery. Regarding radical prostatectomy, the main complications are hemorrhagic, digestive and urinary. During or after surgery of BPH, hemorrhagic and urinary complications dominate. The management of these complications relies on general principles based on a low level of evidence, but usually associate a structured diagnostic pathway and an appropriate treatment decision.

Background: To assess how centralisation of cancer services via robotic surgery influenced positive surgical margin (PSM) occurrence and its associated risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) in cases of pT2 prostate cancer (PC).

Methods: Retrospective analysis of all radical prostatectomy (RP) cases performed in the West of Scotland during the period from January 2013 to June 2022. Primary outcomes were PSM and BCR.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) has improved localization of prostate cancer (PC) lesions in biochemical recurrence (BCR) for salvage radiotherapy (SRT). We conducted a retrospective review of patients undergoing F-rhPSMA-7 or F-flotufolastat (F-rhPSMA-7.3)-PET-guided SRT compared with conventional-SRT (C-SRT) without PET.

Purpose: Prostate-specific membrane-antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA PET) is a promising candidate for non-invasive characterization of prostate cancer (PCa). This study evaluated whether PET with tracers [Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 or [F]PSMA-1007 is capable to depict intratumour heterogeneity of histological PSMA expression.

Methods: Thirty-five patients with biopsy-proven primary PCa without evidence of metastatic disease nor prior interventions were prospectively enrolled.

Background: There has been a wide range in incidence of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) persistence and relapse after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer (PCa). We aimed to describe incidence and prognostic implications of PSA persistence and relapse.

Methods: Register-based cohort study in Sweden of men diagnosed with PCa between 2007 and 2020 who underwent RP.

Background: Non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (PCa) has become clinically important in PCa management, with treatments aiming to delay metastasis. However, limited data exist on its prevalence and patient characteristics in real-world settings.

Methods: We retrospectively investigated the clinical records of 1929 patients who were treated for localized PCa between 2005 and 2018.
