What is Robotic Simple Prostatectomy?

A Robotic Simple Prostatectomy is a minimally invasive surgery designed to relieve severe urinary symptoms caused by BPH.

Unlike a radical prostatectomy, which is performed for cancer, this procedure removes only the inner portion of the prostate that is causing the obstruction while preserving the prostate’s outer capsule and surrounding structures.

Key Benefits of Robotic Simple Prostatectomy

Minimally Invasive: Performed through small incisions, leading to less pain and faster recovery.
Preserves Urinary and Erectile Function: Improves urinary flow while protecting the nerves responsible for erections.
Long-Lasting Relief: Provides greater durability than other BPH treatments.
Short Hospital Stay: Many patients are discharged the next day, and some who undergo single-port robotic surgery may go home the same day.

Comparing BPH Treatment Options: Which One is Right for You?

Here’s how Robotic Simple Prostatectomy compares to other advanced BPH treatments, including Aquablation® and Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE).

Key Takeaways:

Robotic Simple Prostatectomy offers the longest-lasting relief for men with large prostates and severe symptoms. It preserves erectile function but does not preserve ejaculatory function.
Aquablation® is a minimally invasive alternative that preserves both ejaculatory and erectile function, making it ideal for moderate-sized prostates.
PAE is a low-risk outpatient procedure that preserves both ejaculatory and erectile function, though it may require future treatments.

Who is a Candidate for Robotic Simple Prostatectomy?

This procedure is recommended for men with severe BPH symptoms and large prostates (>80g) who have not responded to medications or less invasive treatments like Urolift®, Rezum®, or TURP.

You may be a candidate if you experience:

Frequent or urgent urination
Weak or interrupted urinary stream
Difficulty starting or stopping urination
Feeling like your bladder isn’t emptying completely
Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs)

How Robotic Simple Prostatectomy is Performed

Step-by-Step Process:

1. Preparation: You’ll be placed under general anesthesia, and several small incisions will be made for robotic instruments.
2. Access to the Prostate: The surgeon uses a 3D high-definition camera to visualize the prostate and guide the procedure.
3. Removal of Enlarged Tissue: The inner portion of the prostate causing obstruction is carefully removed.
4. Hemostasis and Reconstruction: The surgical area is inspected for bleeding, and the bladder is reconnected to the remaining prostate tissue.
5. Closure: The incisions are closed with sutures or surgical glue for minimal scarring.
