How Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) is performed
This procedure is performed under general anesthesia, commonly using a multi-port robotic system, entering the pelvis through small abdominal incisions. Nerve preservation and pelvic lymph node dissection can be selected based on assessment. Typically, the prostate and seminal vesicles are dissected and removed under high-definition magnified vision, the bladder-urethral anastomosis is reconstructed, and a urinary catheter and necessary drainage are placed. Postoperative monitoring includes input and output volume and hemoglobin levels, and waiting for the pathology report. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
