285 Identifying the relationship between postoperative urinary continence and residual urethra stump measurements in robot assisted radical prostatectomy patients Results A total of 53 patients were eligible based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria (Figure 1). Twenty patients were excluded from analysis after reviewing the videos as they lacked the reference structure to calibrate the measurements, and were excluded from the analysis. The remaining 33 patients were divided in a continent (N=26) and an incontinent group (N=7). Baseline characteristics of the patients are represented in Table 1. There were no statistically significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. A significant positive correlation of the Kinovea (MUL) and preoperative MRI (SUL) measurements of the urethral stump length (r=0.390; p =0.025) was found. The correlation of the VUL and SUL and urethral width measurements were not statistically significative. Moreover, a correlation between the Kinovea (SUW) and MRI (MUW) Figure 2: Study flow diagram – Study population selection flowchart
