In the researchers' words

On the basis of the now consolidated literature and clinical experience of focal therapies, the execution of partial prostatectomy/hemiprostatectomy with robot-assisted laparoscopic technique can be proposed in a well-selected cohort of patients. The hypothesis is that with this technique it is possible to achieve excellent levels of disease control, in terms of positive surgical margins (PSM) and biochemical recurrence of the disease (BCR), against a minimal impact as regards postoperative functional outcomes (continence and sexual power).
