Clinical effect of a positive surgical margin without extraprostatic extension after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy

This study support the hypothesis that the pT2+category disease is associated with a significantly increased risk of BCR in patients with organ-confined prostate cancer after RARP. As PSM can be avoided in some cases, urologists should continually seek to improve their operative skills and to reduce the rate of PSM, especially in patients with organ-confined prostate cancer.
