Learning curve for robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: a multi-institutional study of 3794 patients.
AIM: The aim of this study was to define the learning curve for positive surgical margin (PSM) rate and operative time (OT) for robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP); while the learning curve appears shorter for surgical safety for RALP compared to other surgical modalities, th...
