This book comprehensively covers the techniques available for robot- assisted prostatectomy.  Chapters feature detailed descriptions of how to successfully perform a variety of relevant techniques including the reconstruction of continence mechanisms and the use of the transperitoneal RALP anterior approach. Potential complications, preoperative and postoperative management strategies are also discussed, enabling the reader to develop a thorough understanding of how to apply a range of relevant methodologies into their day-to-day clinical practice and avoid commonly encountered pitfalls.

Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Advanced Surgical Techniques provides a practically applicable resource for all practicing  and trainee urologists seeking a detailed overview of the latest advances in robot-assisted surgical procedures and current management strategies applicable to prostatectomy.
