Robotic Prostate & Urology Surgery – Surgeries
Introduction
Robotic Radical Prostatectomy is the most advanced and precise method of treating prostate cancer. The robotic system provides a 3D magnified view and tremor-free instrument control, enabling surgeons to remove the prostate while carefully preserving the nerves responsible for continence and sexual function.
Benefits
- Better cancer clearance
- Superior nerve preservation (continence & potency)
- Minimal blood loss
- Smaller scars
- Faster return to normal activity
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is robotic surgery better than open surgery?
Yes — robotic surgery offers higher precision, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery compared to open surgery.
Will it affect sexual function?
Nerve-sparing robotic techniques significantly improve continence and sexual function outcomes in suitable patients.
Who Is a Candidate?
- Localized prostate cancer
- Early or intermediate-stage disease
- Medically fit for anesthesia
Recovery Timeline
- Day 1: Walking encouraged
- 1 Week: Catheter removed
- 3–4 Weeks: Resume normal routine
- 3–6 Months: Improved continence & sexual function
