Description
Summary:Prostate cancer remains the most common urologic malignancy, and robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy makes the most effective treatment option. The special conditions of the surgery (Trendelenburg position) affect the intraocular pressure.The objective: to systematize new data on changes in intraocular pressure during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy under various types of general anesthesia. Materials and methods. Publications were reviewed using the PubMed search engine in the electronic databases of Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library up to August 2020. Results. A total, 9 studies were included in the review including a randomized controlled one. Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy can be a safe surgery regarding perioperative changes in intraocular pressure and ophthalmic complications.Conclusions. The review offers the first assessment of changes in intraocular pressure during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy. Further studies with a longer follow-up period are needed to determine the clinical efficacy and safety of various types of general anesthesia.
