robot laparoscopic suprapubic prostatectomy possible open

Posted by wj05 @wj05, Jul 20, 2025

After 50 years of having an enlarged prostate, the doctor had recommended a possible open robot laparoscopic suprapubic prostatectomy. I am not sure about this; it sounds very scarce. Has anyone had this procedure? If so, what were the end results (good or bad)?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Men's Health Support Group.

I had HoLep done 10 weeks ago. It worked great and I feel great. My issue is with incontinence. I still have it, but it is getting better each week. I work with a pelvic floor physical therapist. She is indispensable. Good luck.
