Hemoglobin drop (mean difference [MD] confidence interval [CI]: 0.34\u2009g\/dL [0.09\u20130.58]), the rate of blood transfusions (odds ratio [OR] [CI]: 5.01 [1.60\u201315.61]) catheterization time (MD [CI]: 3.26 days [1.30\u20135.23]), and length of hospital stay (LoS) (MD [CI]: 1.94 days [1.11\u20132.76]) were significantly lower in EEP. No significant differences were seen in operating time and enucleation weight. No significant differences were observed in the incidence of postoperative urinary retention, postoperative transient incontinence, and complications graded according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. Functional results were similar, with no significant differences in International Prostate Symptom Score and maximum urinary flow rate at follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both EEP and RASP offer excellent improvement of symptoms due to prostatic hyperplasia. EEP has lower blood loss, shorter catheterization time, and LoS and should be the first choice if available. RASP remains an attractive alternative for extremely large glands, in concomitant diseases, or whenever EEP is not available.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Review Registration Number (PROSPERO):<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CRD42021226901<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/end.2021.0788","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,14]],"date-time":"2022-01-14T08:21:30Z","timestamp":1642148490000},"page":"1018-1028","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Robot-Assisted Simple Prostatectomy\n                    <i>vs<\/i>\n                    Endoscopic Enucleation of the Prostate: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Comparative Trials"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Karl-Friedrich","family":"Kowalewski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Friedrich Otto","family":"Hartung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jost","family":"von Hardenberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Caelan M.","family":"Haney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maximilian C.","family":"Kriegmair","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philipp","family":"Nuhn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Patroi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Niklas","family":"Westhoff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Honeck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas R.W.","family":"Herrmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Spital Thurgau AG, Frauenfeld, M\u00fcnsterlingen, Switzerland."},{"name":"Department of Urology, Hanover Medical School, Hannover, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maurice Stephan","family":"Michel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3358-946X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jonas","family":"Herrmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg, Mannheim, Germany."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_9_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1464-410X.2009.08427.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_9_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/JU.0000000000000319"},{"key":"e_1_3_9_4_2","unstructured":"Gravas SC Cornu JN Gacci M Gratzke C Herrmann TRW Mamoulakis C Rieken M Speakman MJ Tikkinen KAO Guidelines Associates: Karavitakis M Kyriazis I Malde S Sakalis V Umbach R.
