    AbstractBackground and Objectives: To prove the feasibility of continuous spinal extraperitoneal robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (cseRALP) in order to expand the pool of eligible patients. Materials and Methods: According to IDEAL guidelines, a consecutive cohort of patients who underwent cseRALP was enrolled. Pre-, intra-, and post-operative data were collected, with particular focus on safety and oncological outcomes. Results: A total of three patients underwent this technique, with no intra- or post-operative medical complications. Only a grade 1 Clavien-Dindo complication was reported, small urinary leakage treated with an indwelling catheter. Oncological and functional results at month 3 were satisfactory, with no recurrence and no stress incontinence. Conclusions: cseRALP seems to be feasible and safe; further trials are mandatory.
