We dutifully published our experience as the leading centre in the UK employing the NeuroSAFE technique in the National Health Service. This was pioneered by the Martini Klinik group in Hamburg, Germany and they have achieved success in >10,000 nerve spare radical prostatectomies using both open and robotic approaches. Our study’s limitation of an unmatched case series, will have uncertainties no doubt addressed by the ongoing UK multicentre NeuroSAFE PROOF RCT.1 Shortly after introducing the robotic platform in our Institute, the majority of nerve spare (NS) RALPs were performed using NeuroSAFE, and hence a control group was not possible in this series.
