If you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you may be wondering whether robotic surgery is the right option for you. While it is widely used, not every patient will be suitable. Robotic prostate surgery is typically recommended for men with cancer that is confined to the prostate or has limited local spread. It is […]

Nerve-sparing prostate surgery is a key advancement in the treatment of prostate cancer, helping to preserve important functions while effectively removing cancer. The prostate is surrounded by delicate nerve bundles that control urinary continence and erectile function. Traditional surgery often risked damaging these nerves, leading to long-term side effects. Modern robotic techniques have transformed this […]

A common concern for men undergoing prostate cancer surgery is whether they will regain erectile function afterwards. While this is an important consideration, outcomes vary depending on several factors. The nerves responsible for erections run very close to the prostate. During surgery, these nerves can be affected, which may impact function temporarily or, in some […]

Robotic prostate cancer surgery has become a leading treatment option due to its strong success rates and improved patient outcomes. When performed by an experienced surgeon, it offers excellent results in both cancer control and quality of life. One of the primary goals of surgery is complete cancer removal. Robotic techniques allow for highly precise […]

Recovery after robotic prostate surgery is typically quicker and more manageable compared to traditional open procedures. However, understanding the timeline and what to expect can help patients feel more prepared and confident. Immediately after surgery, patients usually stay in hospital for one to two days. During this time, medical teams monitor recovery and ensure pain […]

When considering prostate cancer surgery, one of the most common questions is whether to choose robotic or open surgery. Understanding the differences can help patients make a more informed decision. Open prostate surgery is the traditional approach, involving a single larger incision to remove the prostate gland. While effective, it typically results in longer recovery […]

Robotic prostate cancer surgery, also known as robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, is one of the most advanced treatments available for men diagnosed with prostate cancer. It combines surgical expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver highly precise results while minimising impact on the body. During the procedure, the surgeon controls robotic instruments from a console, using high-definition […]

Recovering from prostate cancer surgery can feel daunting, but real-life experiences show the difference that expert care and advanced technology make. One patient shared, “From the moment I met Professor Prokar Dasgupta, I felt confident. The robotic surgery went smoothly, and my recovery was faster than I expected. I’m back to my normal life and […]

obotic prostate cancer surgery has transformed how prostate cancer is treated, offering men less invasive procedures, faster recovery, and precise cancer control. In 2026, these surgeries are more advanced than ever, thanks to improvements in robotic technology, imaging, and surgical techniques. Professor Prokar Dasgupta OBE remains at the forefront of these innovations. As one of […]

Preparing for a robotic prostatectomy can help reduce anxiety, optimise recovery, and improve surgical outcomes. A robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure performed using advanced robotic technology, allowing surgeons like Professor Prokar Dasgupta OBE to remove the prostate with precision while sparing nerves critical for urinary and sexual function. Pre-surgery checklist for patients By […]
