Adverse Effects of Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Versus Open Retropubic Radical Prostatectomy Among a Nationwide Random Sample of Medicare-Age Men

[Guest guest]

Looks like this supports the fact that the experience of the doctor is more

important than the procedure he does. Wonder what the conclusion would be

for men under 65? Also given the frequency of side effects should more older

men with low risk PCa consider AS to avoid the side effects? Kathy

Conclusion Risks of problems with continence and sexual function are high

after both procedures. Medicare-age men should not expect fewer adverse

effects following robotic prostatectomy.
