A radical prostatectomy is the surgical procedure for removing the entire prostate gland along with the seminal vesicles, the ampulla of the vas deferens, and often surrounding tissue and pelvic lymph nodes. It is performed with curative intent for localized prostate cancer. The surgery can be done via different approaches: radical retropubic prostatectomy (through a lower abdominal incision), radical perineal prostatectomy (through an incision between the scrotum and anus), or minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopic or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. The goal is to completely excise the cancer while attempting to preserve urinary continence and, if possible, erectile function by sparing the neurovascular bundles.
