PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Prоstаte cаncer POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Prоstаte cancer PROCEDURE PERFORMED: Rоbotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy ANESTHESIA: General ESTIMATED BLOOD LOSS: 200 mL SPECIMENS: Prostate and seminal vesicles COMPLICATIONS: None INDICATIONS FOR PROCEDURE: A 37-year-old male with history of elevated PSA, was found to have prostate cancer on needle biopsy, now presenting for prostatectomy. PROCEDURE: After informed consent was obtained, the patient taken to the operating room and placed supine on table. Given IV Ancef for antibiotic coverage. SCDs on lower extremities for DVT prophylaxis. Once under general anesthesia he was placed in low lithotomy position. The arms were tucked and he was secured to the OR table with 3-inch silk tape across the chest and shoulders with foam padding and all pressure points were well-padded. He was then placed in deep Trendelenburg position. The abdomen was shaved, prepped, and draped in usual sterile fashion. An 18-French Foley catheter was placed. A small incision was made just to the right of the umbilicus and a pneumoperitoneum was established with mmHg using the Veress needle. A 12-mm VersaStep trocar was then placed. The laparoscope was placed into the field and the 3 robotic trocars as well as a 12 and a 5-mm assistant port were all placed under direct vision. Once all trocars were in place, the robot was docked to the patient. The fourth arm was used to retract the bladder and sigmoid cephalad. Incision was made in posterior peritoneum below the bladder neck and the vas deferens were identified, dissected free and transected, and then dissected medially toward the seminal vesicles. The seminal vesicles were then dissected out from their surrounding structures with blunt and sharp dissection with the cautery. Once the seminal vesicles were freed up, we released the bladder from the anterior abdominal wall by incising along the medial umbilical ligaments and across the urachus in the midline. The bladder was then grasped with the fourth arm and retracted cephalad. The periprostatic fat was then swept off the prostate and the endopelvic fascia was opened on both sides with the scissors and carried up toward the apex and the dorsal venous complex was oversewn with #0 Vicryl sutures. The anterior bladder neck was then transected until the catheter was visualized. The remaining lateral detrusor fibers were released with the cautery. The posterior bladder neck was then divided and dissection was carried posteriorly until the vas deferens and seminal vesicles were visualized which were brought up into the field and used to retract the prostate anteriorly. We then performed a nerve-sparing procedure by releasing the lateral prostatic fascia with cold scissors on both sides of the prostate and sweeping the nerve fibers off the prostate posterior laterally. The neurovascular bundles were then released and the prostatic pedicles were then clipped with Hem-o-Lok clips and then transected with cold scissors. We then released Denonvilliers fascia posteriorly to release the rectum from the prostate. We then grasped the prostate with the fourth arm, retracted it cephalad, replaced the Foley catheter and then divided the anterior urethra. Once the catheter was visualized, the catheter was withdrawn and the posterior urethral attachments were transected and the prostate and seminal vesicles were placed in an EndoCatch bag. Pneumoperitoneum was then decreased to 7 mmHg, inspected for bleeding and no significant bleeding was identified except for a little bit of oozing around the dorsal vein which was oversewn with 2-0 Vicryl. Once this was complete, we then reapproximated the posterior urethral plate with 2-0 PDS between the rectal urethralis and the cut surface of Denonvilliers fascia and the posterior bladder neck. This was secured with LapryTy’s. We then did a urethrovesical anastomosis with running 3-0 Monocryl with double-armed needles starting at 6 o’clock position and running up toward the apex and placing Lapry-Ty’s at 3, 6, and 12 o’clock positions. Once anastomosis was complete a 20-French Foley catheter was placed, the bladder was irrigated and no significant leak was identified. A Blake drain was then placed in to the pelvis and secured with 3-0 nylon. Once all sponge and needle counts were correct the robot was undocked from the patient, the camera was placed through a lateral system port, and the EndoCatch bag was grasped with a grasper from the periumbilical incision. This incision was widened slightly to allow for extraction of the specimen. The fascia was closed with #0 Vicryl sutures. All other incisions were closed with 4-0 Monocryl in a subcuticular fashion. Benzoin, Steri-Strips, Telfa, and Tegaderm dressings were applied. The patient was then awoken from general anesthesia having tolerated the procedure well with no complications, taken to recovery in good condition.
