INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the number of radical prostatectomies per hospital per year is associated with stage distribution, surgical techniques or quality related outcome in Germany. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A German Internet-based database was analyzed. Hospitals were categorized according to their yearly radical prostatectomy (RP) volume. Patient's characteristics, RP techniques, and outcome-related parameters were compared between the different hospital volume categories. RESULTS: A total of 6,447 patients were analyzed. The highest rate of organ-confined disease and the lowest rate of extracapsular invasion have been demonstrated in very low-volume centres (72.6%
