| Core Tip |
This review directly compared the functional outcomes after retropubic, laparoscopic and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, both at 6-mo and 12-mo follow-up. Compared with the previous meta-analysis which reported a comparable potency recovery of robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RARP) vs laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP), our review obviously included more studies and ranked the three techniques into a superiority level: RARP > LRP > RRP (retropubic radical prostatectomy). In addition, we performed a quality assessment of the studies, separated evaluation of randomized control trials (RCTs) and non-RCTs, and subgroup analyses or meta-regression as a supplement, thus the risk of methodological bias was reduced considerably. |
