Robotic surgery techniques to approach benign prostatic hyperplasia disease: A comprehensive literature review and the state of art

摘要

Objective: The robotic-assisted approach to simple prostatectomy (RASP) was conceived, essentially reproducing the fundaments of open simple prostatectomy. Since the first report, RASP underwent several technical modifications. The study aims to identify and describe the current robotic surgery techniques to approach benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
