ID Registry Title Review Question Intervention and Comparator

CRD42016043331 PROSPERO Positive surgical margins in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy versus open radical prostatectomy: a meta-analysis of comparative studies How surgical approach (robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy or open radical prostatectomy) impacts positive surgical margin Open radical prostatectomy
CD009625 Cochrane (Protocol) Laparoscopic versus open prostatectomy for the treatment of localised prostate cancer To determine whether laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, specifically robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, is more effective than open radical prostatectomy in reducing prostate cancer-specific mortality and increasing biochemical recurrence-free survival Open radical prostatectomy
