A brief overview of the development of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy

Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RP) has gained remarkable worldwide distribution and has become a standard procedure for localised prostate cancer, indeed a new ‘gold standard’. There are proven advantages in reduced blood loss and shorter recovery time. Whilst case series publications often r...
