Have you or a person known to you been diagnosed with prostate cancer and wondering where to get this treated reliably? Get treatment of prostate cancer with utmost confidence in the safest hands of India’s most reputed surgeons. The best surgery for prostate cancer is Robotic Radical Prostatectomy world-wide.

About prostate gland cancer, causes and symptoms

Prostate gland is an organ below the bladder in men that helps in producing semen fluid. When cells in prostate gland start to grow uncontrollably, it takes the form of a prostate gland cancer. Men mostly above 50 years of age are affected. Experts generally agree that men who consume a lot of fat, especially meat cooked at high heat are more likely to develop prostate cancer. Factors like as high BMI, smoking, high consumption of calcium can accelerate prostate cancer as well. Symptoms may include:

• Pain and/or a burning sensation while urinating.
• Frequent urination, especially during the night time.
• Trouble starting urination or stopping it.
• Erectile dysfunction.
• Blood in either urine or semen.

Why surgeons recommend Robotic Prostatectomy over open surgery

The process of minimally invasive prostate cancer surgery is done through a robotic machine– this is called Robotic Prostatectomy. In Robotic prostatectomy, surgeons use advanced robotic surgical system that are designed to mimic the movement of the surgeon’s hands and wrists, allowing perfection. The Da Vinci Xi machine enable controls that allow the surgeon to manipulate the instruments, replicating the surgeon’s natural hand and wrist movements into corresponding precise movements. Robotic arms remain steady at all times and robotic wrists make it easier for surgeons to precisely work on the prostate from all kinds of angles. Surgical robotic has optimized laparoscopic surgical proficiency by:

• Furnishing superior three-dimensional view of the prostate gland
• Easing surgical manipulation with superior dexterity via wristed movements’
• Hand shaking filtration and movement scaling, i.e. shaking of hand while performing surgery is corrected by robots so there’s no cut or injury in other organs
• Major advantage is to preserve nerves of prostate gland which control erection of penis through robotic vision hence patient will be able to perform sexual activities after surgery.

Benefits of getting Robotic Radical Prostatectomy with surgeons in India

India possesses several advantages as a medical tourism destination. Patients with budget restraints can also utilize top notch medical services within India hospitals. Delhi (India) is at the core of performing robotic surgeries using Da Vinci Xi – Robotic Surgery machine under the supervision of surgeons specializing in robotic surgery. Prostate Cancer Treatment in India provides higher precision during surgery compared to traditional surgeries during which the entire prostate is removed. Other benefits of getting Robotic Prostatectomy procedure in India are:

• Many reputed surgeons at Indian hospitals go for education / training / working experience abroad, particularly in developed countries.
• Surgeons and medical staff in India can communicate in English, thereby adding to the comfort level for patients.
• Most of the advanced medical machineries are at disposal of all major Indian hospitals.
• Indian nurses are highly trained and easily available.
