Advanced Robotic Prostatectomy for Faster Recovery
Dr. Taneja specializes in state-of-the-art robotic surgery
techniques that offer significant advantages over traditional methods.
Minimally Invasive
Tiny incisions result in less scarring, reduced pain, and
faster healing compared to traditional open surgery.
Less Blood Loss
Robotic precision means significantly reduced blood loss during
surgery, lowering the need for transfusions.
Short Hospital Stay
Most patients can return home within 1-2 days after surgery,
compared to 3-5 days with traditional methods.
Better Outcomes
Enhanced precision helps preserve nerve function, improving
continence and potency rates after surgery.
Signs You May Need to See a Prostate Cancer Surgeon
Early detection is crucial for successful treatment. Consult
Dr. Taneja if you experience any of these symptoms.
Difficulty Urinating
Weak urine flow, trouble starting or stopping urination, or feeling that
the bladder isn’t completely empty.
Frequent Urination at Night
Waking up multiple times during the night to urinate (nocturia), disrupting
sleep patterns.
Pelvic Pain
Discomfort or pain in the pelvic area, lower back, or when sitting for
extended periods.
Blood in Urine
Presence of blood in urine (hematuria), which may appear pink, red, or
brown.
Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes. Don’t delay
seeking medical attention if you experience these symptoms.

expertise in robotic surgery gave me confidence. One year later, my PSA levels are undetectable
and quality of life is excellent.”
What is Robotic Prostatectomy?
Robotic prostatectomy is an advanced, minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove
the prostate gland in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer. This surgery is performed
using the da Vinci robotic surgical system, which gives the surgeon enhanced precision,
control, and visualization.
During the procedure, Dr. Rajesh Taneja controls robotic instruments via a console, allowing
for greater accuracy than traditional open or laparoscopic surgery. The robotic arms make
tiny incisions, reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.
This technology is particularly useful in preserving nerve function and urinary control,
which are crucial for maintaining quality of life after prostate surgery.
Benefits of Robotic Prostatectomy
Choosing robotic prostate surgery offers several clinical and lifestyle advantages:
- Minimally Invasive: Tiny incisions mean less
scarring, reduced pain, and faster healing compared to traditional open surgery - Faster Recovery: Most patients go home within 24–48
hours - Less Blood Loss: Reduced need for transfusions during
surgery - Shorter Hospital Stay: Most cases require only 1–2
days of hospitalization - Better Cancer Control & Precision: Enhanced
visibility helps achieve complete cancer removal - Lower Risk of Complications: Less damage to
surrounding nerves and tissues - Better Post-Surgery Outcomes: Improved urinary
control and sexual function in many cases
