Robotic-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in the Elderly Patient-A Study of Functional, Surgical, and Oncological Outcomes in an Australian Cohort - PubMed RARP in carefully selected elderly patients does not increase risk of urinary incontinence and should not be disregarded in an aging population with higher overall life expectancy.

Robotic assisted radical prostatectomy in the elderly patient?
Some would claim this to be inappropriate purely on basis of numerical age.
I’d argue performance status/co-morbidity/frailty/life expectancy probably matter more.
