Robotic Radical Prostatectomy

• Rising PSA levels after initial treatment (in selected cases)

• Men seeking a definitive cure with reduced side effects

A thorough consultation with Dr. Sachin Arakere Nataraj, an expert in robotic urologic oncology, helps determine if robotic prostatectomy is the right choice.

Benefits of Robotic Radical Prostatectomy (Pros)

✅ Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions mean less pain, reduced blood loss, and a faster recovery.
✅ Greater Precision: The robotic system allows for enhanced nerve-sparing techniques, preserving erectile and urinary function.
✅ Shorter Hospital Stay: Most patients are discharged within 1–2 days.
✅ Lower Risk of Complications: Reduced chances of infection, incontinence, and erectile dysfunction compared to open surgery.
✅ Faster Return to Normal Life: Quicker recovery and earlier return to work and daily activities.

Potential Risks & Considerations (Cons)

❌ Temporary Urinary Incontinence: Some patients may experience leakage initially, but most improve over time.
❌ Erectile Dysfunction: While nerve-sparing techniques help, recovery can take months to years.
❌ Surgical Risks: As with any surgery, risks include bleeding, infection, and anesthesia-related complications.
❌ Cost Consideration: Robotic surgery may be more expensive than traditional open surgery.
