Particularităţi tehnice ale prostatectomiei radicale laparoscopice 3D full HD: Einstein versus Davinci vision

Abstract

Summary The development of the new imagistic methods - multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging, has increased the number of prostate cancer cases detected in localized and locally-advanced stage, which allows curative treatment - radical prostatectomy. At the moment, there are 3 options for carrying out the radical prostatectomy: 2D Laparoscopy, 3D laparoscopy (PRL) and robotics (RALP). The aim of the study was to evaluate the technical features of 3D laparoscopic radical prostatectomy compared to that achieved by robotic approach. The study included 35 patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma who underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy 3D intervention in the period March to August 2015, in "Endoplus" Clinic. Also, a second study group consisted of first 207 patients that had been operated robotic in the Center for Robotic Surgery Hospital Municipal Cluj-Napoca. 3D laparoscopic radical prostatectomy can be considered an alternative to robotic approach in centers that do not benefit from this technique, with similar results in terms of operative time, blood loss and postoperative patient recovery.
