Retropubic, Laparoscopic, and Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Systematic Review and Cumulative Analysis of Comparative Studies

TL;DR: LRP and RALP were more time consuming than RRP, especially in the initial steps of the learning curve, but blood loss, transfusion rates, catheterisation time, hospitalisation duration, and complication rates all favoured LRP, and LRP showed similar continence and potency rates.

Robotic radical prostatectomy in the community setting—the learning curve and beyond: initial 200 cases

TL;DR: With a structured methodical approach, the introduction of robotic assistance has the potential to improve surgical outcomes and reduce the steep learning curve associated with conventional laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with minimal patient morbidity, and good oncological and functional outcomes.
