 Hello, I am Dr. Deepak Gubey, I am a consultant urological surgeon and head of the department of urology at Manipal Hospital's Bangalore and I also perform robotic urological surgery. The most commonly performed robotic urological procedure nowadays is robot assisted prostatectomy. Prostate cancer is becoming increasingly common amongst elderly men and the best cure for prostate cancer whenever it is curable is to remove the prostate using robot assisted prostatectomy. Now, the prostate is an organ which is situated in a very complex area of the body and it is surrounded by a lot of other delicate structures and also those structures involve control of urine in the postoperative period and working in this narrow space with lot of delicate organs around becomes a big undertaking when it is done by open surgery. But because of the advantages that I have mentioned of robot assisted surgery, it makes the procedure less complex, very quick discharge from the hospital, very quick recovery and lesser degree of incontinence or leakage of urine after surgery.
