Robotic radical prostatectomy is fast getting popular as an alternative to the open and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Planning for port placement and the assistant's role are the two crucial yardsticks for the success of this procedure. Ideal port placement for radical robotic prostatectomy is not only crucial for the surgeon at the console but also for the patient side assistant. A better assistance could enhance the functional outcome of the procedure and at the same time could increase the comfort level of the surgeon at the console. This article describes the role of an assistant in robotic radical prostatectomy.
机器人根治性前列腺切除术作为开放性和腹腔镜根治性前列腺切除术的替代方法正迅速流行起来。端口放置规划和助手的角色是该手术成功的两个关键标准。机器人根治性前列腺切除术的理想端口放置不仅对控制台旁的外科医生至关重要，对患者侧助手也很关键。更好的协助可以提高手术的功能效果，同时可以提高控制台旁外科医生的舒适度。本文描述了助手在机器人根治性前列腺切除术中的作用。
