The team at USMDPCC is committed to providing a wide variety of leading edge prostate cancer treatment options for our patients, including the latest breakthroughs in nerve-sparing robotic surgical techniques.
Robotic surgery for prostate cancer is a minimally invasive procedure that allows our expert surgeons to treat prostate cancer with numerous benefits to our patients, including reduced scarring, trauma and pain, rapid recovery and shorter hospital stays. Compared to traditional surgical methods, which utilize large incisions, robotic surgery is performed through a variety of smaller incisions that are less traumatic to our patients. Recovery time is much shorter due to reduced tissue damage, resulting in shorter hospital stays compared to conventional surgery methods. Ultimately, our patients are afforded a faster overall recuperation and can quickly resume normal activities.
The new catheter-less technique at USMD Prostate Cancer Center is now being offered to patients. This groundbreaking technique greatly increases pateint comfort after surgery. Watch the video below to learn more!
 The USMDPCC team features the da Vinci® Robotic Surgery System, the most advanced robotic treatment method for prostate cancer. The enhanced precision and control of the da Vinci System paired with the expert knowledge of our world-renowned surgeons offers an unsurpassed treatment method for a traditionally complex surgical procedure.
Home to one of the country's largest robotic surgery programs, USMD Prostate Cancer Center has completed more than 3,000 robotic surgery procedures to-date!
The da Vinci System allows our surgeons to extend their expertise and utilize the following technological elements for our patients:
• Enhanced 3D analysis of the surgical area
• Improved dexterity
• Enhanced surgical precision
• Amplified range of motion
The minimally invasive nature of the da Vinci System allows a variety of benefits to our patients at USMDPCC, including:
• Nerve-sparing techniques used to retain erectile function
• Reduced post-operative pain
• Reduced risk of infection
• Lower concentration of anesthesia
• Less potential blood loss
• Shorter hospital stay
• Quicker and more complete recovery
• More rapid return to everyday activities
These benefits cannot be guaranteed, and your surgeon will discuss all potential benefits and risks with you before your procedure. Remember, the da Vinci System is an advanced instrument that allows your surgeon to perform your procedure with added accuracy and precision. The robot is not in control of the procedure, rather your surgeon controls all aspects of your treatment utilizing the da Vinci System.
