Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility of applying transvescal approach laparoendoscopic single-site radical prostatectomy (TVSSLRP) and assess the oncological and functional outcomes.Methods Eight patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (PCa) of low risk underwent TVSSLRP.Demographic data were accrued including patient age,body mass index (BMI),preoperative PSA level,the International Index of Erectile Function 5,biopsy Gleason score,clinical TNM stage and D'Amico risk classification.One surgeon performed all TVSSLRP procedures.A homemade triple-port was introduced percutaneouly into the bladder to establish pneumovesicum through a 4 cm incision.The major steps of the surgery were described as follows:initial incision was made along posterior margin of the bladder neck to expose bilateral vas deference and spermatic vesicle.After opening Denonvilliers' fascia and extending the space to lateral prostatic pedicles,an intra-fascial nerve sparing procedure was performed.The puboprastatic ligaments were then separated close to the prostate surface and the dorsal vein complex was cautiously swept off.Subsequently,careful apical dissection and urethral transection was sequentially conducted. To reduce the tension of vesico-urethral anastomosis,3 additional incisions parallel to vesio-urethral margin were created and a novel tension - reduced V-LocTM barbed polydioxanone sutures was used. Results All the operations were successfully performed and there was no conversion to standard laparoscopic approach or open surgery.The total operative time range was 75 - 180 min with mean time of 125 min.The blood loss was 85 -450 ml with mean 140 ml and no blood transfusion was required.The catheter was removed after a mean (range) of 14 (9 -16) days.No intra-operative complications occurred. No patient had positive surgical margins.The mean (range) hospital stay was 17 (13 -25) days after surgery. All the cases were continent after removal of the catheter.No cases demonstrated vesico-urethral stricture and biochemical recurrence on 12 - 18 months follow up postoperatively. Conclusions TVSSLRP is technically feasible for cases with organ-confined prostate cancer with good oncological and functional results.
