Abstract
One of 3 men surgically treated for prostate cancer still report depressive symptoms months after surgery. Patients who undergo robot-assisted radical prostatectomy reported lower depressive symptoms than those treated with open radical prostatectomy. Sexual desire was highly affected after radical prostatectomy with greater impairment reported by patients who underwent open radical prostatectomy.
