Robotic Radical Prostatectomy
A Robotic Radical Prostatectomy for patients who may benefit from bilateral nerve sparing Radical Prostatectomy. David however still offers laparoscopic and open radical prostatectomy depending on the specific cancer.
There is very little difference between a robotic and a 3D laparoscopic procedure for prostate cancer although many believe that a robotic procedure makes nerve sparing easier.
