Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy(RARP)in the treatment of highly suspected prostate cancer without biopsy,in order to provide reference for clinical practice.Methods This study included 82 patients with highly suspected prostate cancer treated in our hospital during Jan.2021 and Dec.2022.The patients were divided into the puncture group(n=41)and non-puncture group(n=41)with random number table method.All patients underwent RARP.Biopsy was performed before operation in the puncture group while no biopsy was performed in the non-puncture group.The main outcome indicators(diagnostic accuracy,complications,hospital stay,hospital costs,urinary control rate)and secondary outcome indicators(operation time,intraoperative blood loss,number of blood transfusion,catheter indwelling time,positive incisal margin,anxiety and depression scores before and after treatment)were compared between the two groups.Results All 41 cases(100％)in the puncture group were prostate cancer,and 40 cases(97.56％)in the no-puncture group were pathologically confirmed as prostate cancer.The non-puncture group had significantly lower perioperative complication rate(19.52％vs.2.50％),shorter operation time[(75.31±20.35)min vs.(60.25±10.64)min],less intraoperative blood loss[(141.25±30.45)mL vs.(111.45±33.58)mL],shorter hospital stay[(7.89±1.21)d vs.(5.13±1.02)d],lower total hospital costs[(4.12±0.56)ten thousand yuan vs.(2.61±0.43)ten thousand yuan],and lower anxiety and depression scores[(7.02±1.25)vs.(1.99±0.42);(7.05±1.31)vs.(1.95±0.38)](P＜0.05).The no-puncture group had slightly higher urinary control rate 1,6 and 12 months after treatment than the puncture group(75.00％vs.58.54％;87.50％vs.80.49％;95.00％vs.92.68％),but with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).Conclusion RARP is feasible in the surgical treatment of prostate cancer without biopsy,which can shorten the postoperative rehabilitation time,reduce the hospital costs,and alleviate the anxiety and depression of patients.
