About Radical Prostatectomy (Robotic)
Robotic radical prostatectomy removes the prostate gland through small keyhole incisions using a robotic system, as treatment for localised prostate cancer. It aims to clear the cancer while protecting urinary control and, where possible, erections.
The surgeon operates robotic arms from a console, using a magnified 3D view to remove the prostate and seminal vesicles, and sometimes pelvic lymph nodes. The bladder is then joined to the urethra over a catheter. When the cancer allows, the delicate nerves beside the prostate are preserved to protect erectile function. Operating time is typically two to four hours.
Usually a good fit if
- Localised prostate cancer that appears confined to the gland, in men with a life expectancy of ten years or more.
- Intermediate or high-risk cancer where a multidisciplinary team recommends surgery, sometimes with later radiation.
- Fit for general anaesthesia and willing to accept the risks to continence and erections.
May need to wait if
- Cancer that has spread to bones or distant organs is usually treated with hormone or drug therapy instead.
- Severe heart or lung disease may make anaesthesia and robotic positioning unsafe.
- Very low-risk cancers may be better managed by active surveillance, which your doctor can discuss.
How to prepare
- Bring biopsy results, PSA, prostate MRI and any bone or PSMA scans so staging and nerve sparing can be planned.
- Ask your doctor about adjusting blood thinners, diabetes and blood pressure medicines before surgery.
- Start pelvic floor exercises before surgery, taught by a physiotherapist, to help urinary control.
- Discuss erectile function, fertility and sperm storage before the operation.
- Plan to remain near the hospital until the catheter is removed (usually 7–14 days after surgery) and the team clears you to fly.
Questions to ask your surgeon
- Is surgery, radiation or active surveillance best for my risk group?
- How many robotic prostatectomies do you personally perform each year?
- Can the nerves be spared on one or both sides, and what are realistic chances of erections?
- How long until urinary control returns, and what help is available with pelvic floor rehabilitation?
- What do pathology margins and lymph nodes mean for further treatment?
- How will PSA be followed and who monitors it at home?
Red flags when comparing hospitals
- Surgeon cannot say how many robotic prostatectomies they have done.
- No prostate MRI or staging is reviewed before surgery.
- Nerve sparing is promised without considering your cancer risk.
- Surgery is advised for every patient without discussing radiation or surveillance.
