Radical prostatectomy: Who is it recommended for?

The decision to undergo a radical prostatectomy is made after a thorough, multidisciplinary evaluation to determine whether surgery offers the best chance of cure while maintaining quality of life.

This procedure is most often recommended when:

A personalized, step-by-step evaluation

In Turkey, the decision to proceed with prostate cancer surgery is based on a careful, individualized assessment that includes:

  1. Accurate staging workup: Advanced imaging (MRI, PET-CT) to confirm that the cancer has not spread beyond the prostate.
  2. Lymph node evaluation: When there is a suspected risk, lymph node removal may be included in the surgical plan to address potentially affected nodes.
  3. Discussion of alternatives: Depending on factors such as age, other medical conditions, and patient preferences, options like radiation therapy or active surveillance may be considered. Our role is to clearly explain all available choices.

This approach allows the medical team to develop a personalized treatment plan, always aiming for the best balance between effective cancer control and preservation of urinary and sexual function.

Wondering whether you are a candidate for radical prostatectomy? The first step is a thorough and confidential review of your medical records by our specialists.

What prostatectomy techniques areavailable in Turkey?

Surgical treatment for prostate cancer in Turkey has evolved significantly, now offering techniques that emphasize maximum precision and faster recovery.

The choice of surgical approach is a strategic medical decision made together with your urologist, based on your clinical situation, the extent of the disease, and your personal treatment goals.

Prostatectomy techniques used in Turkey:

Technique

Description

Key advantages

Open surgery (Retropubic prostatectomy)

The traditional surgical approach, performed through an abdominal incision. It remains highly effective and is still recommended in certain complex or specific cases.

Proven long-term outcomes, suitable for complex anatomy or advanced cases.

Laparoscopic prostatectomy

A minimally invasive technique using small incisions and a camera that provides a magnified view of the surgical field.

Less postoperative pain, reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery.

Robot-assisted prostatectomy (Da Vinci)

Considered the gold standard for precision when indicated. The surgeon controls a robotic system with high-definition 3D vision and an enhanced range of motion.

Extremely precise dissection, improved nerve preservation (erection and urinary continence),and the best functional recovery outcomes.

Thanks to these advanced techniques, treatment plans in Turkey can be tailored to achieve the optimal balance between effective cancer control and preservation of quality of life.

Why is robotic prostatectomy a key advantage with Turquie Santé?

The leading urology centers we partner with in Turkey invest in state-of-the-art robotic technology and provide advanced training to their surgeons. For many cases of localized prostate cancer, robotic prostatectomy is often the preferred approach, as it combines excellent cancer control with better preservation of urinary and sexual function.

At Turquie Santé, our role is to connect you with highly experienced surgeons and ensure that the selected technique truly fits your individual profile. We help facilitate clear communication, so you fully understand the benefits of each option and can take part in the decision with confidence.

Preparing for your prostatectomy with Turquie Santé

A successful prostatectomy in Turkey begins well before the day of surgery. At Turquie Santé, we turn the preparation phase into a clear, well-organized process designed to answer your questions, reduce stress, and support optimal recovery.

In-depth urology consultation

This is far more than a routine appointment. You will have dedicated time with your urologic surgeon to discuss the surgical approach recommended for your specific case. Visual aids such as imaging or 3D diagrams are often used to explain the procedure clearly. You will receive straightforward answers about expected outcomes, potential risks, and life after surgery, allowing you to make an informed and confident decision.

Personalized anesthesia assessment

Before surgery, a specialized anesthesiologist conducts a complete evaluation, including medical history review and necessary tests. This allows the anesthesia plan to be tailored to your health profile, ensuring maximum safety and comfort during the procedure.

Optimizing your physical preparation

Our medical team provides personalized guidance to help you arrive in the best possible condition for surgery, including:

How radical prostatectomy is performed in Turkey

Radical prostatectomy is a highly precise surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia. The goal is to remove the prostate completely while preserving urinary control and sexual function as much as the cancer allows.

Key steps of the procedure

  1. Targeted removal of the prostate: The surgeon carefully removes the prostate gland along with the seminal vesicles, using meticulous techniques to minimize trauma to surrounding structures.
  2. Reconnection of the urinary tract: The urethra is reattached to the bladder to restore normal urinary flow after surgery.
  3. Lymph node sampling (when indicated): If there is a clinical reason, a limited lymph node dissection may be performed to assess potential spread and refine the prognosis.
  4. Immediate pathological analysis: Removed tissues are examined during or shortly after surgery, allowing the medical team to confirm margins and plan any additional treatment if needed.

Nerve preservation: A major surgical priority

Modern prostate surgery places strong emphasis on identifying and preserving the nerves responsible for erections whenever it is oncologically safe to do so. The extent of nerve preservation depends on the tumor's location and stage.

In our partner centers, robot-assisted prostatectomy (da Vinci) provides high-definition 3D visualization and highly flexible instruments, allowing for extremely precise nerve-sparing dissection.

Before surgery, you will have a detailed discussion with your urologist to assess your individual chances of nerve preservation and to review the surgical plan tailored to your case.

Would you like to understand how these steps apply to your own situation? Schedule a dedicated consultation with an experienced urologist to receive clear answers and a personalized treatment plan.

The first hours after surgery: Closely monitored recovery

When you wake up in the recovery room, you will be under the attentive care of the medical team. Feeling tired or groggy after anesthesia is normal. Your comfort is a priority, and any discomfort will be addressed promptly.

To support healing and ensure your safety:

Each of these measures is temporary and designed to protect you during the early recovery phase. Your Turquie Santé care coordinator and the medical team will explain every step, helping this period remain short, well-managed, and reassuring.

Side effects and follow-up in Turkey

Although radical prostatectomy is often an effective treatment for prostate cancer, some side effects may occur after surgery. Most of them are temporary and can be managed successfully with proper follow-up and supportive care.

Side effectFrequencyTypical courseProactive care in Turkey

Urinary incontinence

Very common in the early postoperative period.

Gradual improvement over 3 to 12 months in most patients.

Early, structured pelvic floor rehabilitation with a specialized physiotherapist, combined with practical lifestyle and hygiene guidance.

Erectile dysfunction

Varies depending on surgical technique and nerve preservation.

Recovery is possible over 6 to 24 months.

Early evaluation and access to a full range of treatment options (oral medications, injections,  erection devices),with sexual health counseling when needed.

“Dry” ejaculation

Occurs in all patients.

Permanent, but does not affect orgasm.

Clear preoperative information to reduce anxiety and help patients focus on preserving sexual satisfaction.

Urethral stricture

Rare (less than 5% of cases)

May appear several months after surgery.

Regular monitoring during follow-up visits and simple, effective correction (such as dilation) if required.

With Turquie Santé, recovery is a guided and supported process. Each potential side effect is anticipated, openly discussed, and managed by experienced specialists in Turkey, with long-term quality of life as the priority.

Do you have questions about any of these effects? Let's address them during your dedicated consultation and prepare every step of your recovery with clarity and confidence.
