Recovering from a robotic prostatectomy is a journey that varies for each patient, but understanding what to expect can help you prepare and achieve the best outcomes. A robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive surgery that removes the prostate gland using advanced robotic technology. Under the care of an experienced surgeon like Professor Prokar Dasgupta […]

When facing prostate cancer surgery, patients often ask: should I choose robotic prostatectomy or traditional open surgery? Understanding the differences can help you make an informed decision that balances safety, recovery, and long-term outcomes. Robotic prostatectomy, also called robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, uses advanced robotic technology to perform keyhole surgery. Small incisions allow surgeons to operate […]

For men facing a diagnosis of prostate cancer, selecting the right surgeon for a robotic prostatectomy can make a significant difference in both cancer control and quality of life after surgery. Robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses advanced robotic systems to remove the prostate gland with greater precision, reduced blood loss, and […]

A radical robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure to remove the prostate gland in men diagnosed with prostate cancer. Unlike traditional open surgery, this advanced approach uses robotic-assisted technology, giving surgeons enhanced precision, 3D vision, and improved control during surgery. The result is often less blood loss, smaller incisions, and a faster recovery. When […]

Genetic testing is playing an increasingly important role in how prostate cancer risk is identified and managed. One of the most significant genetic factors is the presence of mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. While often associated with breast and ovarian cancer, BRCA mutations are also strongly linked to prostate cancer, particularly more aggressive […]

Choosing the right treatment for prostate cancer can feel daunting. With several options available, it’s natural to wonder which approach offers the best balance of cancer control, recovery, and long-term quality of life. One increasingly popular option is robotic prostatectomy—a minimally invasive procedure using advanced robotic technology to remove the prostate with exceptional precision. But […]

A prostate cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, and understanding your treatment options is an important step in making informed decisions. One of the most advanced surgical treatments available today is the radical robotic prostatectomy. But what exactly does that mean—and what sets it apart from traditional surgery? In this post, I will break down the […]

Robotic prostatectomy, also known as robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, is a minimally invasive surgery for treating localised prostate cancer. With its precise instruments and advanced visualisation, robotic surgery has become a preferred choice for many patients seeking effective cancer treatment with reduced side effects. Professor Prokar Dasgupta uses state-of-the-art robotic techniques to achieve excellent outcomes in […]

Robotic prostatectomy is a minimally invasive procedure for treating prostate cancer. With its precision and advanced nerve-sparing techniques, it aims to remove the prostate while preserving urinary and sexual function. Understanding what to expect after surgery is crucial for recovery and achieving the best results. Professor Prokar Dasgupta provides expert care for men undergoing robotic […]

One of the most important considerations in prostate cancer surgery is preserving urinary continence and sexual function while ensuring complete cancer removal. Professor Prokar Dasgupta has pioneered a technique known as SAFE (Saline-Assisted Fascial Exposure) to improve nerve-sparing outcomes during robotic prostatectomy. This blog explains what the SAFE technique is, how it works, and why […]
