Retzius-Sparing Approach for RARP
The Bocciardi approach for Robot Assisted Radical Prostatectomy passes through the Douglas space, following a completely intrafascial plane without any dissection of the anterior compartment, which contains neurovascular bundles, Aphrodite’s veil, endopelvic fascia, the Santorini plexus, pubourethral ligaments, and all of the structures thought to play a role in maintenance of continence and potency. This video highlights technique with excellent robotic surgery footage with labels on the video. 08:31
