Can anastomotic urinary leakage in robotic prostatectomy be considered as a marker of surgical skill?

In order to try to identify the pure impact of skill on the AUL rate ( Figure 2 ), we first selected the cases from 2006 to 2008 (carried out by the same urologist) demonstrating a significant trend (from 31.6% to 21.7%, p <0.05); then, we considered only the cases performed by in the last 3 years by the same surgeon (FDM) using the CORPUS technique.

In this group of patients, we demonstrated a decreasing trend in the percentage of AUL (from 9.3 to 2%).
