(Objective) The aim of this study is to investigate the treatment outcome of laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP). (Patients and methods) The study cohort consisted of 926 hormone-naïve patients with localized prostate cancer who underwent LRP at the Hiroshima Endourological Association from January 2007 to December 2016. (Results) The mean age was 69.4 years, the mean initial PSA was 9.1 ng/ml, and the mean follow-up period was 40.3 months. The D'Amico Risk Classification was Low: 232 cases, Intermediate: 344 cases, and High: 350 cases. Nerve preservation was performed bilaterally for 138 patients and unilaterally for 181 patients. The mean operative time was 181.0 minutes and the mean estimated blood loss was 360.7 ml. As the number of experienced cases increased, the operative time was significantly shorter and the estimated blood loss was significantly decreased. According to Clavien-Dindo classification, the ratio of perioperative complication degree IIIa or above was 4.0% (37 cases). The pathological results were Gleason score (GS) ≤6: 174 cases, GS7: 514 cases, GS ≥8: 232 cases, pT2≥: 704 cases, pT3a: 172 cases, pT3b: 47 cases, pT4: 3 cases, pN0: 917 cases, and pN1: 9 cases. Positive surgical margins were found in 278 cases (30.0%). The biochemical recurrence-free survival rate at 5 years was 78.1%. In multivariate analysis, age (≥70 yrs), initial PSA (≥10 ng/ml), biopsy GS (GS ≥8), cancer positive core ratio at biopsy (≥30%), pT (pT≥3), pathological GS (GS≥8), positive surgical margin and total number of patients in the facility were predictive factors of postoperative biochemical PSA recurrence. Younger age and nerve preservation were found to be predictive factors for the early recovery of urinary continence after surgery, with 88% regaining urinary continence at 12 months after surgery. (Conclusion) This study revealed the clinical outcome and appropriate candidates for LRP in Japanese patients.
