About the Robotic Prostatectomy for Prostate Cancer

The Shands Robotic Prostatectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for removing cancerous prostates in men. Utilizing an advanced robotic-assisted surgical system, University of Florida urologists specially trained in robotic surgeries perform small-incision prostate surgeries that deliver outstanding results.

The Shands Robotic Prostatectomy is unique from other robotic programs in that it combines the most advanced robotic-assisted technology with UF surgeons fellowship-trained in robotic procedures and urology. Moreover, with the increased precision and control offered by the robotic device, UF surgeons are able to perform a specialized nerve-sparing procedure that was first performed and perfected by a UF urologist.
