Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical value of modified HOOD technique in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the perioperative data of 71 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy performed by the same surgical team during Jul.20,2022 and Dec.20,2024.The patients were divided into the observation group(n=28,modified HOOD resection)and conventional group(n=43,conventional resection).Results The observation group had better urinary continence,with higher immediate continence rate(20%vs.9.3%),shorter drainage tube removal time[4(3-6)d vs.6(3-9)d]and shorter hospital stay[6.5(4-13)d vs.9(5-11)d]compared with the conventional group.There were no statistically significant differences in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative pathological staging between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The modified HOOD technique is safe and feasible in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy,which can effectively improve postoperative urinary continence,promote recovery,and enhance patients'quality of life.
