Description

Prostate surgery, also known as prostatectomy, is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of the prostate gland, often to treat conditions like enlarged prostate (BPH) or prostate cancer. Various surgical techniques exist, including traditional open surgery, laparoscopic, and robotic-assisted procedures, each with its own set of benefits and risks. Urology is a surgical specialty focused on the urinary and male reproductive systems. It involves the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and conditions affecting the kidneys, bladder, urethra, prostate, and other related organs. Urologists are doctors who specialize in this field, offering both medical and surgical management of these conditions.
