Abstract
Within comparable age groups, the incidence of IH in men with prostate cancer treated without surgery was significantly lower than that after RRP. This phenomenon seems to be causally related to the surgical procedure. The increased risk of IH after RRP deserves further recognition and should be included in the preoperative information given to patients. Studies are warranted to define the causal mechanisms, as well as possible preventive measures.
