Retzius Sparing Radical Prostatectomy Versus Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Which Technique is More Beneficial for Prostate Cancer Patients (MASTER Study)? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Continence recovery rates immediately after surgery were significantly higher for Retzius sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) than for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP)/open radical prostatectomy. Positive surgical margin rates in localized ≤pT2 tumors are statistically significantly higher following RS-RARP. Overall and serious postoperative complication rates appear to be similar.
