What are the possible benefits and risks?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Continent Patients Post Prostatectomy (time frame: 1 Month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
