“…The gross harvest of the prostatic and surrounding tissues demonstrated no overt signs of injury, fibrosis, or adhesions between the prostate and surrounding organs, with the preservation of tissue planes. These findings are in direct contradiction to those of the surgical prostatectomy bed after RT, where severe fibrosis, scarring, and adhesions are routinely noted, often leading to downstream complications (33). Similar to 90 Y RE in the liver, this may lead to the possibility of downstaging prostate cancer patients for resection, and merits further study.…”

“…5,7 These outcomes are better than after S-RALP following external beam radiation therapy failure (15%-76.9%), where more energy is applied. 21 Energy ablation to prostatic parenchyma leads to conversion into fibrotic tissue, which involves the periprostatic tissue depending on the treated area during FT. 22 Therefore especially margin status and T-stage need careful consideration. In the present study the rates of positive surgical margins after S-RALP were remarkably low.…”

“…Numerous perioperative, oncologic, and functional outcomes of larger sRARP series after RT modalities have been published. 4 ,5,8,9,19, 20 When compared to primary RP, an increased risk of complications, such as short-term post-operative events, anastomotic stricture, urinary retention, urinary fistula, rectal injury, abscess, fibrosis, poor wound healing, ED, and urinary incontinence (UI), is related with salvage RP. 21 - 23 …”
