Brief summary
At present, the preferred treatment for patients with prostate cancer is still radical prostatectomy. Postoperative patients often face some complications, the most common complications include urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Urinary incontinence is caused by intraoperative injury of urinary control nerves or muscles. Erectile dysfunction is related to intraoperative injury of nerves that control erection. Therefore, intraoperative nerve preservation is a key measure to reduce postoperative complications, especially to prevent erectile dysfunction. This study intends to improve the nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy by monitoring the nerve during radical prostatectomy, locating the cavernous nerve and other related nerves, in order to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications such as erectile dysfunction.
Interventions
The probe needle electrodes were inserted into the corpus cavernosum penis, ischiocavernosus muscle, bulbocavernosus muscle, anal sphincter, etc., and each monitoring electrode was connected to the nerve monitor. The changes of electromyography of each effector during the operation were monitored in real time. The stimulation electrode was placed in the abdominal cavity during the operation. During the resection of the prostate, electrical stimulation was performed on the possible running area of the NVB, and the stimulation site where the signal was monitored was protected from resection and burning under the premise of safe surgery.
