Prostate Cancer Treatment Options:

• Radical prostatectomy surgery (either open or robot-assisted)
• For qualified candidates, robot-assisted prostate surgery offers numerous potential benefits over the traditional open prostatectomy, including shorter hospital stay, less pain, less risk of infection, less blood loss and transfusions, less scarring, faster recovery, and quicker return to normal activities.
  
  The da Vinci® Surgical System S is powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology. The System allows your surgeon's hand movements to be scaled, filtered and translated into precise movements of micro-instruments within the operative site. The magnified, three-dimensional view the surgeon experiences enables him to perform precise surgery in complex procedures through small surgical incisions.
  
  Robotic surgery is performed by a small number of specially trained surgeons, including Urology San Antonio's Dr. Naveen Kella, who was the first urologist in San Antonio to perform a robotic radical prostatectomy.
