| Abstract | Study design, materials and methods Between July 2006 and March 2008, 32 patients who underwent RP were prospectively evaluated. Bladder outlet obstruction was assessed by pressure flow study before RP and urinary health related QOL was assessed preoperatively and 6 or 12 months after RP using the validated Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) questionnaire. We stratified the 32 patients into 2 groups by bladder outlet obstruction grade of Schäfer nomogram. Group A included 21 patients with Schäfer nomogram grade 2 or less and group B included 11 patients with grade 3 or more. |
