I was worried I was the first to perform a radical prostatectomy on an 80 year old man – The Robotic Surgeon – Domenico Savatta, M.D.

Men older than 80 years can undergo successful prostatectomy – UrologyTimes

Radical
prostatectomy can be a reasonable option for select octogenarian patients,
according to researchers from the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.

I saw back my oldest robotic prostate patient today. He is 80 years old and had surgery 3 months ago. He looked great and felt equally well. He had minimal urinary leakage issues by 1 month and was not wearing a protective pad today. He is very active and had been regularly going to watch college sports since a week after surgery.
He was extremely pleased.
I was wondering if someone else had done surgery on octogenarians and came across the above piece from the Mayo clinic.
I think with robotics the near term morbidity is very low in the well selected 80 year old patient.
