Robotic simple prostatectomy
Robotic Simple Prostatectomy: why single port (SP)?
Why single-port robotic surgery for a large prostate?
In brief
Single-port robotic surgery works through one small incision instead of several. For simple prostatectomy, that may mean less pain, a smaller scar, and in some cases a shorter stay.
What it involves
Early studies suggest urine flow results are similar to multi-port robotic surgery. Not every patient is a fit.
Time to come in?
If you have a very large prostate, schedule a visit to see if single-port surgery fits.
