Fig. 1 Socially dry (0–1 pad daily, solid squares) and totally dry (no pad use, open circles) by weeks after catheter removal. This graph represents 210 patients from 2002–2006 who underwent a running anastomosis with a median 8-d catheter period. The number of patients at each length of follow-up is indicated in the table.

Fig. 2 Total continence is graphed by bladder-neck technique and nerve-sparing status. Totally dry patients are not using any protective pads (in weeks following catheter removal). BNS=bladder neck spared; BNR=bladder neck reconstructed; NS=nerves spared; WR=wide resection (not nerve sparing). Nerve sparing was the most significant variable for urinary continence; preservation of the bladder neck was a less significant contributor to urinary continence. The number of patients available with outcomes at weeks after catheter removal and the statistical analysis are shown in the table (one-sided p test, 95%CI).

Fig. 3 Partial erections by nerve-sparing status in months after surgery. The table shows the number of men with available outcomes and statistical differences by months after surgery (one-sided p test, 95%CI).

Fig. 4 Adequate erections by nerve-sparing status in months after surgery. The difference reaches statistical significance at 0–4, 12, and nearly so at 10 and 14 mo after surgery (one-sided p test, 95%CI).
