Abstract:
Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the main therapeutic method for early localized prostate cancer.With the advancement of technology，robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is widely applied，which can enable better achievement of the “five wins”, including long-term tumor control，recovery of urinary control，negative surgical margins，preservation of erectile function，and reduced postoperative complications，thereby improving the treatment efficacy.This paper reviews the various surgical approaches (transabdominal，transperitoneal，transvesical，transperineal，single-hole)，current status of optional surgical equipment (da Vinci surgical robot，domestic robot)，and advantages and limitations of RARP，so as to provide reference for clinicians in choosing the optimal surgical method for prostate cancer.
