Abstract
This study aimed to construct a novel pelvis-prostate model BPPP which consists of body mass index (BMI), prostate volume (PV), pelvic cavity index (PCI) and prostate-muscle index (PMI) to predict the immediate urinary continence after Retzius-sparing robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP). The perioperative data of patients with prostate cancer who underwent RS-RARP in the department of urology of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from June 2018 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. 280 patients were eligible for this study in total. Multivariate analysis showed that BMI, PV, PCI, PMI and NVB preservation were significantly associated with immediate urinary continence after RS-RARP. Subgroup analysis showed that patients with low BMI, low PV, high PCI and high PMI had a higher recovery rate of immediate urinary continence. The area under the curve of BPPP (BMI + PV + PCI + PMI) for predicting the immediate recovery of urinary continence after RS-RARP was 0.726. Delong test showed that the area under the curve of the combined test for predicting the immediate urinary continence after RS-RARP was better compared with single parameter (p < 0.05). In conclusion the novel pelvis-prostate model BPPP may predict the immediate urinary continence after RS-RARP, providing information for preoperative decision-making.
