MARTINEZ-SALAMANCA, Juan I.; RAO, Sandhya; RAMANATHAN, Rajan  e  TEWARI, Ash. Robotic radical prostatectomy: Cornell University Technique. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2007, vol.60, n.4, pp.383-396. ISSN 0004-0614.

We present in this chapter our Athermal Radical Robotic Prostatectomy technique developed in the Cornell University and the Urology Institute, Innsbruck University from 2004. Up to date, we have performed surgery in more than 600 patients diagnosed with clinically localized cancer of prostate. We describe most important technical steps, emphasizing in NVB dissection avoiding using any thermical energy not to injury the cavernous nerves. Additionally we present the pathological and functional outcomes (urinary continence and potency) of our cohort of 215 patients that underwent surgery during year 2005.
