Radical retropubic prostatectomy.
We herein present a modification of the Campbell technique for radical retropubic prostatectomy used in 75 consecutive patients undergoing surgical extirpation of the malignant gland. This technique provides for predictable and careful anatomic removal of the prostate. The postoperative complications have been minimal and urinary incontinence has been negligible.
