Introduction: Incontinence is a morbid outcome of
radical prostatectomy. Membranous urethral length
(MUL) is a predictor of continence in previous studies.
We have evaluated the association between preoperative
MRI MUL and continence post Robotically Assisted
Radical Prostatectomy (RARP).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of
patients who underwent RARP by a high volume single
surgeon/supervised fellows 8/2015-6/2017. Patients with
prior or adjuvant treatment were excluded. Continence
was defined as no pad/safety pad. MRI variables included
MUL and were measured by consultants Uro-Radiologist/
Urologist and uro-oncology fellow. Multivariate logistic
regression analyses were performed to identify predictors
of incontinence.
Results: 190 patients were included. Mean age 62 years
(46-73). The mean MUL was 14.6mm (6-24). Age and MUL
were significantly associated with incontinence outcome
at immediate, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. After
age adjustment, MUL remained to be a significant predictor. The area under the ROC curve for continence based
on MUL was 0.78 at 12 months. The risk of incontinence
in patients with MUL of <10mm was 27.8% (13.8%, and
39.1% for patients <65 years, and t65, respectively). The
risk of incontinence with MUL > 15mm was 2.7% (1.5%,
and 4.5% for <65 years, and t65, respectively). < 8mm, 1%
of total, complete urinary incontinence.The inter-observer
concordance rate was 89% for Coronal MUL.
Conclusion: MUL predicts continence following RARP.
This is important for counselling, training and commencing
a service. A larger, prospective study would be required to

verify our findings. We incorporate it as part of preoperative assessment, counselling and surgical planning.
P6-18 Retzius-sparing robotic radical
prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer

Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy
(RS-RARP) produced significantly better early urinary
continence than its non-RS counterpart in a randomised
controlled trial. Concerns exist however that it might not
allow due to its technical difficulty and the paucity of landmarks a sufficiently wide excision of the prostate when
needed and might therefore be unsuitable for higher risk
prostate cancers.
Of 160 consecutive patients having RS-RARP done by the
same surgeon during a 16-month period, 55 had d'Amico
high-risk prostate cancer. All patients had an extended pelvic lymphadenectomy. Their results were compared with a
matched (for high-risk parameters) group of 55 high-risk
patients operated on robotically by the same surgeon
immediately prior to the adoption of RS-RARP. The mean
follow-up in RS- and non-RS-RARP patients was 8 (1-16)
months & 24 (16-33) months.
Patients in the 2 groups had similar age, BMI, PSA, biopsy
Gleason sum, clinical stage, operating time, extent of
nerve-sparing surgery, blood loss, complication rate, prostate weight, LN yield and post-op. hospital stay.
RS-RARP produces dramatically better (10x) urinary continence at 4 weeks (p=<0.0001) than non-RS-RARP and does
not appear to negatively impact short-terms indicators of
cancer control in patients with high-risk prostate cancer.
Earlier recovery of continence post-surgery allows this
group of patients to undergo adjuvant radiotherapy as part
of multimodality treatment quicker representing an underestimated benefit of the approach. Clearly, longer follow-up
is needed to determine its impact on cancer control.
