CANSINO ALCAIDE, J.R. et al. Analysis of a laparoscopic radical prostatectomy program with 544 cases. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2006, vol.30, n.5, pp.517-530. ISSN 0210-4806.
Introduction: This article reviews the latest publications that refer to Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (LRP) up to 2005, and describes our series of patients for this type of surgery. Materials and methods: After a search of the Internet and consulting journals of renowned prestige, we selected articles that refer to this technique and we summarise the latest developments in LRP. We also present our series of patients. Results: In view of the good oncologic and functional results obtained with LRP, and the possibility of performing hernioplasty as in open surgery, this technique provides a high quality service for patients. Conclusions: Due to the advances in the safety and quality of this technique, such as the use of robots, 3 CCD cameras, and the surgeon's experience, LRP should be offered to our patients, if it is within our means.
