Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To present the robotic radical prostatectomy functional results of the console surgeon with previous experience as a bedside assistant. MATERIAL and METHODS: The medical records of the first 50 patients who underwent robotic radical prostatectomy between September 2016 – July 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. Continence was describedOBJECTIVES: To present the robotic radical prostatectomy functional results of the console surgeon with previous experience as a bedside assistant. MATERIAL and METHODS: The medical records of the first 50 patients who underwent robotic radical prostatectomy between September 2016 – July 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. Continence was described as no using pad or using safety pad. Mild incontinence was described as using 1 pad daily while using 2 and more pads described as severe incontinence. Patients with the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) score >21 were defined as potent, ≤21 were defined as impotent. RESULTS: Mean age was 64.06±6.15 and mean follow-up time was 14.9±6.9 months. Bilaterally, unilaterally and non nerve sparing surgery was performed in 37 (74%), 4 (8%) and 9 (18%) patients, respectively. Clavien grade 3 and higher complication was occurred in only 2 (4%) patients. Surgical margin involvement was detected in 11 (22%) patients and 5 (10%) patients developed biochemical recurrence. Forty (87%) patients were continent and 21 (45.7%) patients were potent at the 6th month postoperatively.

Özet
AMAÇ: Daha önceden hasta başı asistanı tecrübesi olan konsol cerrahının robotik radikal prostatektomi fonksiyonel sonuçlarını sunmak. GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: Eylül 2016 – Temmuz 2018 yılları arasında prostat kanseri nedeniyle robotik radikal prostatektomi operasyonu uygulanan ilk 50 hastanın verileri retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Postoperatif kontrollerde hiç ped kullanmama yada güvenlik pedi kullanma kontinan, 1 ped kullanımı hafif derecede, 2 ped ve üzeri ise şiddetli derecede inkontinans olarak değerlendirildi. Uluslararası cinsel işlev formu (IIEF5) skoru >21 olan hastalar potent, ≤21 olanlar ise impotent olarak kabul edildi. BULGULAR: Ortalama hasta yaşı 64,06±6,15 ve ortalama takip süresi 14,9±6,9 aydı. Bilateral sinir koruyucu, tek taraflı sinir koruyucu ve sinir korumasız cerrahi sırasıyla 37 (%74), 4 (%8) ve 9 (%18) hastaya uygulandı. Sadece 2 (%4) hastada postoperatif Clavien grade 3 ve üzeri komplikasyon görüldü. Cerrahi sınır pozitifliği 11 (%22) hastada tespit edilirken, 5 (%10) hastada biyokimyasal nüks tespit edildi. Postoperatif 6. ayda 40 (%87) hasta kontinan iken, potent hasta sayısı ise 21 (%45,7) olarak bulundu. SONUÇ: Konsol cerrahisi öncesi hasta başı asistans tecrübesine sahip olmak robotik cerrahinin fonksiyonel sonuçlardaki avantajlarına ek olarak komplikasyon oranlarını da minimalize etmektedir.
