Impact of median lobe on urinary function after robotic prostatectomy

Enlarged median lobes (ML) can be technically challenging, particularly during bladder-neck dissection, and may affect urinary functional outcomes of robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP). If known, the impact of potentially larger bladder necks on continence and chronic obstruction on postoperative urinary symptoms might aid patient counseling. We assessed the impact of intraoperatively identified median lobes (ML) on urinary function.We...
