title: "Capio" for laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: a useful device.
abstract: Vesico-urethral anastomosis is a technically challenging part of the laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Our aim was to simplify the anastomosis-step by adopting a new device "Capio" (Boston Scientific), already known in open surgery, together with "Alesix" (Applied), a device used in hand assisted laparoscopy.
