Article Abstract
Aim: To compare perioperative complications, inpatient cost and length of stay between robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and open radical prostatectomy (ORP) using National Inpatient Sample data from 2010 to 2015.
Patients & Methods: A total of 69,009 records with RARP or ORP were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression and generalized linear models.
Results: The RARP had superior perioperative outcomes at a higher cost (adjusted mean difference = 2956; 95% CI: $2822-$3090) and shorter length of stay (mean difference = 0.85; 95% CI: 0.81-0.89) compared with ORP. Mean cost of RARP was lowest in urban teaching, private invest-own, high volume and northeast region hospitals and highest for black men.
Conclusion: Compared with ORP, RARP had significantly better perioperative outcomes at a higher cost.

Introduction And Objectives: High socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with improved oncological outcomes across various cancer types, including prostate cancer. However, limited evidence exists regarding the impact of SES and lifestyle factors on patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including quality of life (QoL), health status (HS), and functional recovery following radical prostatectomy (RP).
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective single-center analysis of 327 patients undergoing RP (177 open, 150 robotic-assisted) assessing pre- and postoperative functional outcomes (QoL, HS, erectile function, continence).

Introduction: The introduction of novel robotic platforms has expanded surgical options for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). However, comparative outcomes with da Vinci multiport (MP) system remain unclear. This systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to compare perioperative, early oncological, and functional outcomes of RARP performed with novel robotic platforms versus the da Vinci MP system.

In biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (BRPC), no definitive independent prognostic factors were reported. This study aimed to identify the factors impacting overall survival (OS) in patients with BRPC after radical prostatectomy (RP). Among 610 consecutive patients who underwent RP between January 2000 and December 2019, with follow-up through December 2024, 152 (25%) patients who developed BRPC were analyzed.

Background: Inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is a common procedure, and patients with a history of IHR may later require radical prostatectomy. Prior IHR can complicate prostatectomy by altering anatomy, but its impact on extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (ELRP) remains unclear. This study evaluates the feasibility and outcomes of ELRP in patients with prior IHR.
