Why Radical Prostatectomy Is Needed

Radical prostatectomy is performed to treat prostate cancer that is confined to the prostate gland, aiming for a complete surgical cure by removing the entire prostate along with the seminal vesicles and, if needed, nearby lymph nodes. It is one option considered based on cancer grade and stage, alongside radiation therapy or active surveillance for very low-risk disease.

Signs You May Need Radical Prostatectomy

Prostate cancer is frequently detected before symptoms appear through routine PSA screening or a digital rectal exam, underscoring the importance of regular checkups for men over 50 or those with a family history. When symptoms occur, they may include urinary difficulties, blood in urine or semen, or pelvic discomfort, though these often overlap with benign prostate conditions and require confirmatory testing.

Types of Radical Prostatectomy

Open retropubic radical prostatectomy accesses the prostate through a lower abdominal incision, while laparoscopic and robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy use small keyhole incisions with magnified visualization for greater surgical precision. Robotic surgery has become the most widely used approach in many centers due to its potential to better preserve the nerve bundles responsible for erectile function when the cancer's location allows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What side effects are most common after radical prostatectomy?

Temporary urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction are the most common side effects, both of which often improve over months with pelvic floor therapy and, if needed, further treatment, though the extent of recovery varies by individual.

How do surgeons try to preserve sexual function?

Nerve-sparing surgical techniques carefully avoid the nerve bundles running alongside the prostate when the cancer's location safely allows it, which your surgeon will discuss based on your specific imaging and biopsy findings.

How is my prognosis after radical prostatectomy determined?

Your PSA level, Gleason score from biopsy, and whether cancer is found at the surgical margins on pathology all help your urologic oncologist estimate your outlook and whether further treatment is needed.

What is the typical hospital stay and recovery?

Hospital stay is usually two to five days, with a catheter needed for one to two weeks afterward, and most men return to normal activities within four to eight weeks.

Will I need regular checkups after surgery?

Yes, PSA blood tests are done periodically after surgery to monitor for cancer recurrence, since PSA should become undetectable once the prostate is removed, making any rise an early warning sign to investigate.
