Abstract
Radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) is the reference method for treatment of localised, organ confined prostate cancer. Since the introduction of nerve-sparing procedure for RRP in the 1980's, the operation has become widespread and is today one of the most common surgical procedures in Urology. In this overview the indications, operative procedure and side effects of RRP are briefly discussed.
