PROSTATECTOMY SURGERY STEPS

The steps of each prostatectomy surgery are different from the other.

However, there are some similarities between open surgery approaches. In general, the common steps include:

Removing the prostate gland from the surrounding tissues and removing the seminal vesicles*

Reattaching the urethra to the neck of the bladder*

Sometimes the surgeon removes the lymph nodes in the pelvis*

The surgeon might leave Jackson-Pratt drain in the belly to remove excess fluids and a catheter for draining urine*.

The difference between the operations comes in the location of the incision and sometimes in the used instruments (robotic arm or laparoscope may be used).

PROSTATIC SURGERY TIME

It usually takes 90-120 minutes to 4 hours to complete. Prostatectomy is usually done under general anesthesia.
