Official Title: Is Rhabdomyolysis an Anesthetic Complication in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy?

Brief Summary:

In patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), pneumoperitoneum, intraoperative fluid restriction and prolonged Trendelenburg position may cause rhabdomyolysis (RM) due to hypoperfusion in gluteal muscles and lower extremities.

In this study, it was aimed to assess effects of BMI, comorbidities, intraoperative positioning, fluid restriction and length of surgery on development of RM in RARP patients during perioperative period.
