LAPAROSCOPIC RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY

LAPAROSCOPIC RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is a surgical procedure used to treat prostate cancer. The procedure involves the removal of the prostate gland and surrounding tissue through small incisions in the abdomen.

During the procedure, a laparoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera on the end) is inserted into the abdomen, allowing the surgeon to view the prostate gland and surrounding tissue. Small instruments are then used to remove the prostate gland and surrounding tissue through the small incisions.

Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that offers several benefits over traditional open surgery, including less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times.
While laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is a highly effective treatment for prostate cancer, it is not suitable for everyone. Talk to your urologist to determine if laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is the right treatment option for you.
