Nerve Grafting With an Allograft During Radical Prostatectomy - Extended Follow-up in a Prospective Randomized Trial
Earlier studies were able to show that an improvement of the erectile function following a non-nerve sparing radical prostatectomy could be achieved using an autologous nerve graft. The investigators evaluate the use of the implantation of the allogenic nerve graft Avance® in patients undergoing non nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy.
