Prostatectomy in Karnataka

Types of Prostatectomy

Open (retropubic) prostatectomy removes the prostate through a lower abdominal incision, providing direct access for the surgeon. Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted prostatectomy use small incisions and magnified 3D visualization for precise removal with less blood loss, and robotic surgery in particular has become widely favored for its ability to help preserve the nerves responsible for erectile function when the cancer allows.
