Comparative study among three approaches for RARP:veil of Aphrodite nerve-sparing technique,Retzius-sparing and transvesical RARP

Objective:To compare the perioperative data and surgical outcomes among veil of Aphrodite nerve-sparing RARP(Veil RARP),Retzius-sparing RARP(RsRARP)and transvesical RARP(TvRARP).Method:A total of 79prostate cancer patients who underwent Veil RARP(n=43),RsRARP(n=26)and TvRARP(n=10)from December,2015to August,2018were retrospectively reviewed.Perioperative data and surgical outcomes(operative time,estimated blood loss,postoperative staging,postoperative Gleason score,return of urinary continence and postoperative IIEF-5score)of Veil RARP,RsRARP and TvRARP group were comparatively analyzed.Result:Preoperative data of patients in Veil RARP grouppatients’age(69.7±7.3)years old,BMI(22.9±3.1)kg/m2,tPSA(34.5±21.3)ng/ml,biopsy Gleason score 8(6-9),prostate volume(38.2±16.6)ml and IIEF-5score 12(6-19)],RsRARP grouppatients’age(62.3±10.9)years old,BMI(27.2±6.3)kg/m2,tPSA(15.8±7.2)ng/ml,biopsy Gleason score 7(6-8),prostate volume(44.7±10.8)ml and IIEF-5score 13(6-20)]and TvRARP grouppatients’age(58.6±9.4)years old,BMI(26.5±3.1)kg/m2,tPSA(19.5±4.1)ng/ml,biopsy Gleason score 6(6-7),prostate volume(33.4±15.8)ml and IIEF-5score 16(10-21)]were collected.Veil RARP group included 18cases of cT1c,3cases of cT2a,3cases of cT2b,17cases of cT2c,1case cT3aand 1case cT3b.RsRARP group included 17cases of cT1c,3cases of cT2a,4cases of cT2b,and2cases of cT2c.TvRARP group included 8cases of cT1c,1case of cT2aand 1case of cT2b.All patients maintained urinary continence preoperatively.All 79cases were successfully performed robotically without conversion,transfusion or other major intraoperative and postoperative complications.Postoperative pathology confirmed 9pT2bcases,16pT2ccases,3pT3acases,12pT3bcases and 3cases pT4in Veil RARP groupGleason score 8(6-9)],13pT2acases,9pT2bcases,2pT2ccases and 2pT3ain RsRARP groupGleason score 7(6-8)],and 6pT2acases,3pT2bcases and 1pT2ccase in TvRARP groupGleason score 6(6-7),all P>0.05].Positive surgical margin was found in 11cases in Veil RARP group,6cases in RsRARP and 1case in TvRARP(25.6%,23.1%and 20.0%,respectively P>0.05).Operative time was(115.5±20.5)min,(126.5±33.5)min and(140.5±15.5)min respectively.Estimated blood loss was(80±20.5)ml,(44.5±9.5)ml and(65.5±35.5)ml,respectively.Significant difference was found when RsRARP group compared with other two groups(P<0.05).In Veil RARP group,the urethral catheter was removed 3weeks after surgery.In both RsRARP and TvRARP group,the urethral catheter was removed at postoperative 7days.Twenty-two patients in RsRARP group and 9patients in TvRARP group achieved urinary continence(0pad)immediately after the removal of urinary catheter,while 4patients in RsRARP group and 1patient in TvRARP group returned to full continence in 2weeks postoperatively(P>0.05).Patients in Veil RARP group returned urinary continence(6.5±3.5)weeks postoperatively,which was significantly longer than RsRARP and TvRARP group(P<0.05).During a mean follow up period of 12(3-35)months,no sign of recurrence was noted(tPSA<0.2ng/ml).At 3-month postoperatively,IIEF-5score was 10(4-12)in veil of nerve sparing group,10(4-13)in RsRARP group and 11(5-14)in TvRARP group(P>0.05).No significant difference was noted when compared with respective preoperative IIEF-5score(P>0.05).Conclusion:The transvesical approach to perform RARP seems to be a possible alternative for patients bearing localized low-risk prostate cancer.The rate of immediate urinary continence was higher in both TvRARP group and RsRARP group than that in veil RARP group.Tumor control and preservation of erectile function remain to be determined in the long term follow-up.
