Abstract
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is one of the treatment options for localised clinically significant prostate cancer [1]. However, postoperative urinary incontinence (UI) affects 4–31% of patients 12 months after surgery and is associated with a reduced quality of life [2]. Several surgical strategies have been described to reduce the incidence of UI, including anterior and posterior reconstruction [3], dorsal venous complex and preperitoneal space sparing (PSS) [4], but no consensus exists on the best method to achieve early return of continence.
