Prostatectomy is a surgical procedure designed to remove all or part of the prostate gland. It is commonly performed to address conditions such as prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Types of Prostatectomy Procedures
- Radical Prostatectomy
This procedure involves the complete removal of the prostate gland and surrounding tissues that may harbor cancer cells. It is primarily used for prostate cancer that has not spread beyond the gland. There are various approaches: - Open Radical Prostatectomy: A traditional method involving a larger incision in the lower abdomen or perineum to access the prostate.
- Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy: A minimally invasive technique using small incisions to insert a laparoscope (a camera) and surgical instruments for prostate removal.
- Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (Da Vinci Surgery): Similar to laparoscopic surgery but enhanced with robotic arms for greater precision and control.
- Simple Prostatectomy
This procedure is performed to treat BPH, where the prostate is enlarged but non-cancerous. Unlike radical prostatectomy, it removes only the inner part of the prostate causing urinary symptoms. The main methods include: - Open Simple Prostatectomy: Involves an incision in the lower abdomen to access and remove the inner portion of the prostate.
- Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP): A minimally invasive technique where a scope is inserted through the urethra to remove excess prostate tissue obstructing urine flow. TURP is considered a form of simple prostatectomy for BPH.
