“…Salvage radical prostatectomy (sRP) is a challenging procedure that is rarely performed, although it represents a guidelines-validated option for BCR after primary nonsurgical treatment. The historical series of sRP with frequent major complications, such as rectal injury and poor functional outcomes [5], have played a major role in the low use of this option in a salvage situation. However, minimally invasive approaches may provide significant improvements, which could lead to improved functional outcomes and reduced complications [6,7].…”

“…Historically, sRP has shown inferior oncological and functional outcomes to primary radical prostatectomy with higher postoperative complication rates. The poor outcomes associated with sRP may be due to the technical hazards of surgery such as adhesions, fibrosis, poor tissue quality, and distortion of surgical planes that result from the primary treatment modality [3].…”
