The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of prostate biopsy on perioperative outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP).A total of 181 patients who underwent the RALP in our institution have been retrospectively reviewed, patients were divided into different groups according to the interval of biopsy to RALP and core numbers of biopsy. Perioperative outcomes including estimated blood loss (EBL), operative time (OT), surgical margin status, postoperative drainage, hospital stay, and perioperative complications were served as endpoints.Interval of biopsy to RALP was not significantly correlated with any perioperative outcomes, while the biopsy core numbers had significant correlation with the EBL. In logistic regression analysis, the biopsy core numbers were associated with higher risk of positive surgical margins. Body mass index (BMI) was also a significant factor related to OT.Delay of the RALP after biopsy was not applicable in the era of RALP and surgeons could be more freely in selecting the time of RALP. Besides, further studies should focus on how to improve the diagnostic efficiency of prostate cancer without increasing the incidence of surgical complications.

Short interval of biopsy to robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy does not render any adverse effects on the perioperative outcomes
