After robotic prostate surgery, recovery time is much shorter compared to that of traditional open prostatectomy or laparoscopic prostatectomy. The majority of our patients are back to normal daily activities within 1-2 weeks.
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still regarded as the gold standard surgical treatment for BPH. No other treatment yet has been shown to result in such good results in terms of improved symptoms and flow.TURP does require a short period of hospitalisation and a light anaesthetic.A catheter (a tube which drains the bladder) is also needed for 1-2 days until the urine clears. Patients are advised to take life quietly and to avoid straining or heavy lifting for 10 days or so after the surgery.t is normal to have blood in the urine after this operation, so it is advisable to drink plenty of water for a few days while it clears. Clots are sometimes passed 10-14 days afterwards; again, this is part of the healing process.
