Abstract

Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening, coupled with a rising incidence of needle biopsies in asymptomatic men, have all contributed to prostate cancer becoming the most common cancer in men in the United States¹,² and other parts of the world.³ With increasing evidence of improved long-term survival and progression-free outcomes,^4-7 radical prostatectomy has become increasingly popular as the treatment of first choice for organ-confined disease.
