Why Prostate Cancer Surgery Is Needed

This surgery, typically a radical prostatectomy, is performed when prostate cancer is diagnosed at a stage where it is still confined within the prostate gland, offering a chance for complete surgical cure. It is one of several treatment paths considered based on cancer grade, PSA levels, patient age, and overall health, alongside options like radiation or active surveillance for very low-risk cancers.

Signs You May Need Prostate Cancer Surgery

Early prostate cancer often causes no symptoms and is detected through a routine PSA blood test or digital rectal exam, which is why regular screening after age 50, or earlier with family history, is recommended. When symptoms do occur, they can include difficulty urinating, weak urine stream, blood in urine or semen, or discomfort in the pelvic area, though these are more often caused by benign prostate enlargement.

Types of Prostate Cancer Surgery

Open radical prostatectomy removes the prostate through a lower abdominal incision, while laparoscopic and robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy use small incisions and specialized instruments for greater precision with less blood loss and faster recovery. The choice of approach depends on surgeon expertise, cancer characteristics, and patient factors, with robotic surgery increasingly preferred in many centers for its enhanced dexterity around delicate nerves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will prostate cancer surgery affect my sexual function?

Erectile dysfunction is a common side effect since nerves controlling erections run close to the prostate, though nerve-sparing surgical techniques aim to preserve function where the cancer allows, and recovery varies by individual.

Will I have urinary incontinence after surgery?

Temporary urinary leakage is common initially and improves for most men over several months with pelvic floor exercises, though a small percentage may have longer-term incontinence requiring further treatment.

How do I know if surgery is the right choice versus radiation?

This depends on your cancer's grade and stage, your age, and personal preferences around side effects, and a urologic oncologist can help you compare options based on your specific case.

How long is recovery after prostate cancer surgery?

Hospital stay is typically two to five days, with most men returning to normal activity within four to eight weeks, and continence and sexual function continuing to improve over several months.

Will I need follow-up after surgery?

Yes, regular PSA blood tests are used to monitor for any cancer recurrence after surgery, and your urologist will set a follow-up schedule based on your pathology results.
