I'm no expert in which surgical approach is best. But, I did go to the experts at Northwestern (whose team co-authored the highly-regarded prostate cancer book, "Dr. Patrick Walsh's Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer."

My surgeon used the anterior pelvic fascial sparing approach to robotic radical prostatectomy (also referred to as the “hood technique”). I knew there was also the posterior approach, but what made me comfortable in not searching out a surgeon with the posterior approach is that a five year study had shown the anterior approach was effective at both minimizing incontinence as well as CANCER control.

Meaning, "The review’s central conclusion is that preserving the anterior peri-prostatic anatomy improves early urinary continence after RARP, and that the most carefully studied anterior-approach variant — the “hood” technique — achieves this without compromising cancer control."

I like the idea of going with solid data for decision making and cancer control was definitely my primary goal while also minimizing continence issues. Hoping that they get all the data on the posterior approach as well.

This article is a good review on the approaches:
