Abstract
— The Authors report their experience with perioperative complications in 128 patients after radical retropubic prostatectomy preceding bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy for prostatic cancer. Patients were classified by anatomo-pathological stage; 25% were stage D1. Data relating to homologous transfusions (22%), intraoperative complications (1.6%), minor (16%) or major (7%) early complications and late complications (0.8%) are analysed. The latest group of patients has also been assessed from a sexual, psychological and social point of view. 84% of patients reported an erectile deficit, but only 4% suffered a psychological worsening reflecting on their social life.
