The impact of a structured intensive modular training in the learning curve of robot assisted radical prostatectomy
Aim: The success of Robot Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP) is mainly due to his relatively short learning curve. Twenty cases are needed to reach a “4 hours-proficiency”. However, to achieve optimal functional outcomes such as urinary continence and potency recovery may require more experi...
