Prostate Cancer Surgery

OPERATIONS FOR EARLY PROSTATE CANCER

General Surgical Approach

Open radical prostatectomy- traditional surgery to remove the prostate gland through a lower abdominal midline incision.

Laproscopic  Surgical Approach

Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy- surgery to remove the prostate gland using a minimally invasive technique (“keyhole” surgery). Patients experience less pain after surgery & a faster return to normal activity.

Robotic Surgical Approach

Robotic assisted radical prostatectomy- surgery combining the latest state-of-the-art robotic technology with a minimally invasive technique to remove the prostate. The system allows for greater dexterity, enabling more precise dissection of tissues & reconstructive surgery, while maintaining all the advantages of minimally invasive surgery.
