Superior early and long-term continence following early micturition on day 2 after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: A randomized prospective trial

World Journal of Urology May 06, 2020

Harke NN, Wagner W, Liakos N, et al. - Researchers sought to examine early and long-term continence and patient comfort depending on type and duration of catheterization after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. They performed prospective randomization of 198 patients into three groups (May 2016–July 2017). Placement of a transurethral catheter with micturition on postoperative day (POD) 5 was performed in the control group; a suprapubic tube (SPT) with micturition on POD 5 in the group SD5 or with micturition on POD 2 in group SD2, respectively. The three groups were similar in terms of postoperative comfort and catheter-related complications. Outcomes suggest early micturition after SPT placement in robotic radical prostatectomy as beneficial with no rise in risk of complications.
