Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) has become the standard surgical care in the USA and worldwide. With 13,000 procedures performed over the past 18 years, the surgical technique has evolved, leading to optimal patient outcomes.
Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) has become the standard of surgical care in the USA and around the world. Over the past 18 years, we have performed 13,000 radical prostatectomies, and our surgical technique has evolved over time. We discuss this evolution and how it has helped us achieve optimal patient outcomes.
