Prostate surgery
The operation depends on whether the question is obstruction or cancer. Those are not the same operation and they are not chosen from a menu.
Who it is discussed for
Prostate surgery is discussed after urine symptoms, imaging and, when cancer is the question, pathology. Continence and sexual function are named as possible consequences, not as guaranteed preservations.
What is explained
For Prostate surgery, the surgeon explains the organ, the route and the functions that can change: urine flow, continence, fertility or sexual function. Cancer questions follow pathology, not a symptom list alone.
Anaesthesia
Anaesthesia is general or sedation according to the operation and the person. An anaesthetist decides. Local anaesthesia is not assumed.
Stay
A monitored stay is usual. The number of nights is individual. It is not a package length.
Recovery
The first days are spent near the surgical team. Swelling and limits on activity are expected. The result is not judged in the first weeks.
Return travel
The day of a flight is a medical decision, not a holiday date. Oncora does not promise a fixed day of departure. Airports in use are the ones recorded in the organisation settings.
Risks
Bleeding, infection, clots, poor wound healing, anaesthesia events and a result that differs from the hope are among the risks. The list for a person is longer and is given in consultation. This page is not that list.
