Abstract

Performing a radical treatment of prostate cancer in patients with a history of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a serious task even for an experienced surgeon, due to the anatomical and topographic changes that occur after endoscopic surgery. The technical possibilities of robotic technologies have great potential for obtaining the best treatment results for this category of patients.

In order to review the intra- and postoperative outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients with a history of PCa and TURP, we selected relevant publications in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases for the period from 2008 to 2022.

Based on the analysis of publications, there is no definite opinion on the efficacy and safety of RARP in patients after TURP compared with patients without a history of TURP. However, an experienced robotic surgeon with an appropriate level of expertise should perform surgical treatment of patients with a history of TURP. It has been shown that the choice of surgical approach when performing radical prostatectomy does not have a significant impact on treatment outcomes. At the same time, before performing radical treatment of prostate cancer in this category of patients, it is necessary to inform them about the possibly worse oncological and functional results of the operation.
