Abstract / Description of output

Endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy (EERPE) is a well-established procedure for treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Intrafascial nerve-sparing EERPE (nsEERPE) aims to preserve the neurovascular bundle and subsequently erectile function. This study assessed the functional and oncological outcomes of nsEERPE with particular regard to younger patients.
