Abstract
Comparison of transperitoneal and extraperitoneal lymphadenectomy for staging clinically localized human prostatic cancer indicates that the transperitoneal approach is associated with a higher incidence of postoperative morbidity and complications, and a significant incidence of radiation enteritis when followed by irradiation of the pelvic and paraaortic nodes.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
