Radikal Prostatektomi
Radical prostatectomy is a surgical procedure aimed at removing the prostate gland in cases of localized prostate cancer that has not spread beyond the organ. This operation is one of the most effective treatment methods and significantly reduces the risk of disease progression.
Who is a candidate for radical prostatectomy
The procedure is most often recommended for men with localized prostate cancer at early stages, confirmed by biopsy data, PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels, and results from imaging diagnostic methods. According to research, the 10-year survival rate after radical prostatectomy exceeds 90%, making it the gold standard of treatment for many patients.
Modern methods of performing the operation
Radical prostatectomy can be performed using various methods, including traditional open surgery, laparoscopy, and robot-assisted surgery. Today, the da Vinci robotic system has gained particular popularity, providing the surgeon with the highest precision of movements, minimizing the risks of damaging nerves and vessels, and significantly reducing the recovery period.
What makes the robotic method unique?
- High precision: robotic tools allow operations to be performed with millimeter precision, preserving nerve structures responsible for urinary control and erectile function.
- Minimal invasiveness: small incisions reduce the risk of blood loss and infections.
- Quick recovery: patients return to normal life on average within 2-3 weeks after the intervention.
Benefits of radical prostatectomy
- Complete tumor removal: the procedure eliminates the malignant formation along with surrounding tissues, minimizing the risk of recurrence.
- Preservation of quality of life: modern technologies allow the preservation of functions critical for everyday life, including urinary control and sexual activity.
- Long-term results: according to data from the American Society of Oncologists, 15-year survival after the operation reaches 76-82%.
