Utilisation of anatomic grading of nerve-spare during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy to prognosticate erectile function recovery

Objective: To determine if a precise 5-point nerve-spare (NS) scoring system at the time of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) correlates with post-operative erectile function recovery (EFR). Patients and methods: From 2014 to 2018, 277 patients underwent RARP by a single surgeon. NS qualit...
