Feasibility, Safety, and Functional Outcomes of Pelvic Hypothermia Induced Using a Rectal Cooling Device During Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: A Phase I/II Trial.

Radical prostatectomy (RP) is one of the standard treatments for localized prostate cancer. However, in terms of functional outcomes, there are aspects that still need improvements. We designed this prospective phase I/II clinical trial to assess the safety, clinical feasibility, and functional outcomes of hypothermic robot-assisted RP (RARP). Twenty patients with preoperative total 5-item Inter...
