What is Prostate Cancer?

Prostate cancer is a cancer that occurs in the gland known as the prostate in men, which is a small gland that is situated just under the bladder. The prostate is an essential gland that secretes seminal fluid that fertilises and feeds sperm. The cells in this gland start growing uncontrollably in prostate cancer, creating a tumour. Although most of the cases develop gradually and might not cause severe damage over a long period of time, some of them can be aggressive and spread rapidly to the surrounding tissues or even to distant organs such as bones and lymph nodes.

It is a very prevalent cancer among men and, that too, men who are above 50 years old. The positive side is that using the modern procedures of robotic surgery, radiation, and new medicines, prostate cancer can be detected in time and treated in most cases. The problem of symptoms, regular check-ups, and prompt consultations with a doctor are the conduit to a successful fight with this illness.

Types of Prostate Cancer Surgery

Robotic-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy

This advanced, minimally invasive surgery uses robotic technology for high precision, smaller incisions, and faster recovery. It helps preserve urinary control and sexual function better than traditional methods.

Open Radical Prostatectomy

A traditional approach where the prostate is removed through a larger abdominal incision. Though recovery takes longer, it remains effective for complex or advanced cancer cases.

Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy

Performed through small incisions using a camera and instruments, this minimally invasive surgery offers quicker healing and less blood loss. However, it lacks the precision of robotic-assisted techniques.

Transurethral Resection of the Prostate

TURP is mainly done to ease urinary problems rather than cure cancer. It removes excess prostate tissue through the urethra, improving urine flow and quality of life.

Your Guide to Prostate Cancer

Age is the greatest risk factor for prostate cancer, with a majority of the cases being diagnosed in males above 50. The family history is also important, as men who have a father or a brother with prostate cancer are more at risk. There are also genetic and racial factors, including inherited BRCA mutations and some racial backgrounds like African ancestry.

Others are the diets, obesity and lifestyle, which could determine the extent of aggression of the cancer. Although healthy living, frequent examination, and knowledge of one’s own risk cannot eliminate all the risks, it is possible to detect it early and achieve favourable results.

During the initial phases, prostate cancer usually has no visible effects; thus, this is the reason why screening is very crucial. Men can experience urinary changes in the form of difficulty in initiating urination, weak flow, increased urination (especially during the night), or experience of incomplete emptying as it enlarges.

At a later stage it may lead to blood in urine or semen, erectile problems, pain in the pelvis or aches in the bones in case the cancer metastasises. Being aware of these red flags and seeking the attention of a specialist early will result in a significant treatment outcome.

The treatment varies according to the level of the disease, age, and general health of the patient. In prostate cancers in the initial stages of slow growth, physicians can suggest active surveillance, which is following up on the cancer without directly treating it. The more developed ones can be treated with surgery (such as robotic-assisted prostatectomy), radiation, or hormone therapy to manage proliferation.

Newer targeted therapies, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy can be applied to enhance the survival and quality of life in those cases when the cancer has spread. In recent years, the results for the prostate cancer patients are more effective and less invasive than they were before because of the development of robotic surgery and the individual approach to the treatment.

Commonly Asked Questions

How does life change after prostate removal?

Life after prostate removal can bring changes such as temporary urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction, but most men see gradual improvement over time. Regular follow-ups, pelvic floor exercises, and rehabilitation help restore function. With proper care, many patients return to their usual lifestyle. Emotional support and counselling can also make the adjustment easier.

Can you have a normal life without a prostate?

Yes, many men live a normal and fulfilling life after prostate removal. While sexual and urinary functions may be affected initially, modern techniques like nerve-sparing surgery and therapy aid recovery. Physical activity, work, and social life usually return to normal. A positive mindset and medical support play a vital role in adapting well.

How many days rest is needed after prostate surgery?

Most men need about 2–3 weeks of rest before resuming light activities. Complete recovery, including return to work and exercise, may take 4–6 weeks depending on health and the type of surgery. Robotic procedures often shorten recovery time. Following your surgeon’s advice ensures safe healing.

What is the home care after prostate surgery?

Home care includes drinking plenty of fluids, eating a healthy diet, and avoiding heavy lifting for a few weeks. Catheter care may be required temporarily, along with medications to ease discomfort. Gentle walking helps prevent complications and improve circulation. Regular follow-ups ensure smooth recovery.

Is prostate surgery a major surgery?

Yes, prostate surgery is considered a major procedure as it involves removing the entire prostate gland. However, modern robotic and laparoscopic methods make it less invasive and safer than traditional open surgery. Hospital stays are usually short, and recovery is faster with proper care. Despite being major, outcomes are generally very positive.
