Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study is a prospective randomized controlled trail to compare early urinary continence recovery after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy with or without sustainable functional urethral reconstruction (SFUR).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Early urinary incontinence has always been a tricky problem for both patients and urologists, even though over 90% patients can recover 1 year after surgery. Many urologists are trying to modify the surgical technique to resolve this problem. Sustainable functional urethral reconstruction (SFUR) is a novel technique which may improve early urinary continence recovery for both local and locally advanced prostate cancer, and even for those with high volume prostate by providing adequate urethral length with bladder neck tubularization and making sustainable periurethral support with peritoneal flap. The purpose of this study is to verify the impact of this new technique on early recovery of urinary continence, as well as on urinary function and oncological outcomes.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* ≥40, but ≤75 years old;
