[Radical prostatectomy in cancer of the prostate. Our experience apropos of 55 cases with 3-year follow-up].
The authors report their experience of retropubic radical prostatectomy for prostatic cancer. They have performed 55 prostatectomies over a period of 3 years. Their indications are essentially stage B (35 cases) and stage C1 (20 cases). The post-operative morbidity was low and no cases of incontinence were observed. Post-operative impotence generally occurs when the cavernous nerves are interrupted. However, erection was preserved in two cases when Walsh's technique was used.
