Radical prostatectomy is an advanced surgical treatment for prostate cancer that involves the complete removal of the prostate gland. At Andrología Málaga, we use state-of-the-art technology, such as the Da Vinci Robot, to perform this procedure with the utmost precision and effectiveness, ensuring better outcomes and a faster recovery for our patients.
Radical Prostatectomy with the Da Vinci Robot
What is the Da Vinci Robot?
The Da Vinci Robot is an advanced tool that allows urologists to perform surgeries with great precision, especially when it is necessary to remove the prostate due to cancer. This technology helps make the operation safer and more effective.
The surgeon controls the robot from a console, viewing the area to be treated on a screen with very clear, 3D images. The robot’s movements are very delicate and precise, making the surgery less invasive, causing less discomfort, and allowing for a faster recovery.
