Abstract
Objective: Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) was introduced in the Department of Urology, Oslo University Hospital, in 2002. The aim of this study was to report mid-term oncology results and survival data.
Material and methods: From February 2002 to November 2007, 582 consecutive patients with localized prostate cancer underwent LRP. Data were collected prospectively into a database.
Results: Mean and median follow-up after LRP was 30.3 months (± 15.5) and 36.0 months (range 3-72). Five patients (1%) were lost during follow-up. Two patients died of prostate cancer during the study period and 10 patients died of other causes. The overall positive surgical margin (PSM) rate was 29% and decreased to 13% for the last 100 patients. The overall PSA progression-free survival (PFS) was 85% at 3 years and 73% at 5 years. Gleason score in the tumour specimen, pT stage and surgical margins were statistical significant independent predictors of biochemical PFS.
Conclusion: These oncology results and 5-year PFS data after LRP are in line with other reports.
