A simple technique for ligation and division of the dorsal vein complex during radical retropubic prostatectomy is described. The dorsal vein complex and anterior wall of the membranous urethra were collectively ligated with a "theta theta" suture using 1-0 catgut and then divided during radical retropubic prostatectomy. This technique prevents dislodgment of the catgut during the procedure, enables maximal preservation of the striated urethral sphincter, and guarantees a lower risk of postoperative urinary incontinence.
