The EORTC quality of life questionnaire predicts early and long-term incontinence in patients treated with robotic assisted radical prostatectomy: Analysis of a large single center cohort.

CONCLUSIONS: In our study a comprehensive evaluation of preoperative patient's QL, assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire, can predict the early and long-term moderate/severe incontinence risk in RARP treated patients. Further studies should confirm our results.
