What is da Vinci Robot Assisted Suprapubic Prostatectomy?
The da Vinci Robot Assisted Suprapubic Prostatectomy is a surgical procedure which removes part of the prostate called the prostatic adenoma, which can cause obstructive symptoms in men. Dr. Kamyar Ebrahimi, who is a fellow ship trained urologist practicing in Glendale CA, and an expert in performing this procedure, explains: da Vinci Robot Assisted Suprapubic Prostatectomy is performed on patients whose prostate is larger than ones that could be treated with laser or the traditional TURP.
