Abstract

Our study shows little improvement in short-term postoperative incontinence rates after RP in Germany in the last 6 years and known risk factors for postoperative incontinence like age, nerve-sparing surgery, and level of experience were reproduced in our analyses. We conclude not only to carefully select but also to counsel patients before being treated for prostate cancer and to strongly advice treatment at certified centers.
