Abstract
Energy-based hemostasis of the prostatic vascular pedicles (PVP) during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) may cause collateral thermal injury to adjacent neural tissue and has been shown to negatively impact sexual function recovery. The unique engineering design of the EnSeal(®) (Ethicon, Cincinnati, OH) has been demonstrated to limit collateral thermal tissue damage to
