Prostate cancer screening has increased the number of patients eligible for radical prostatectomy (RP), but this curable surgery also increases the risk of postprostatectomy erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence, and although these adverse effects may vary depending on their incidence, severity and duration they are present in most men who undergoing RP, exposing them to psychosocial problems, increasing health care costs and reducing labour productivity, therefor it is of great importance to reduce or even prevent them. Pelvic physical rehabilitation is a relatively simple, non-invasive, outpatient method that, if applied properly before and/or after RP, can significantly reduce adverse effects, increase patient quality of life and satisfaction with surgery, but also reduce health care costs and accelerate return to work. It is therefore important that our patients and physicians are aware of the benefits of a pelvic muscle training program.
