Risk of Impotence with Prostate Surgery

It seems that the risk of impotence with prostate surgery is even higher than had been previously thought. One caveat is that the study results that are discussed here may not accurately reflect the current situation, as the data, though not old, may be a bit dated. This ABCNews article explains why this outcome occurs, and what are the more recent innovations that make the risk not quite as dire. Of course, the number one important factor is having a highly competent surgeon.
