Differences in Urodynamic Findings of Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Before and 2 Years After Surgery

Listen to this summary

This study aimed to evaluate changes in bladder function and lower urinary tract symptoms through urodynamic assessments before and two years after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for prostate cancer. The findings indicated significant improvements in urinary symptoms and urodynamic parameters post-surgery; however, a notable decline in the bladder contractility index (BCI) was observed, particularly among older patients, suggesting that age may influence postoperative detrusor function deterioration.
