The incidence of peripheral neuropathies at RARP varies between 1.3% and 10.8%. Lower extremities are more affected than upper extremities and the most important risk factors are intraoperative time duration, patients comorbidities, and ASA score. High-quality prospective randomized studies to better assess the impact of patient positioning during RARP on the development postoperative peripheral neuropathies are needed.
