(UroToday.com) The American Urologic Association (AUA) annual meeting included a late-breaking abstract session with a presentation by Dr. Rafael Sanchez-Salas discussing results of the IMPROVE trial assessing surgical technique in the context of recovery of urinary continence after radical prostatectomy. Post-radical prostatectomy urinary incontinence is not uncommon. Both pelvic floor muscle training and duloxetine have been shown to be effective in improving post-radical prostatectomy urinary incontinence in retrospective series. This trial aimed to assess the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training and duloxetine in urinary continence recovery after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
