Robotic Surgery for Prostate Cancer in India
Oct 30, 2024
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting men globally, including in India. With advances in medical technology, robotic surgery has emerged as a revolutionary treatment option that offers unmatched precision, faster recovery, and improved cancer outcomes.
India is now a hub for advanced cancer treatments, especially robotic prostate surgery, drawing patients from across the country and abroad. Among the leading names in this field is Medical Oncology, Dr. Sumant Gupta, widely recognized as the best cancer doctor in Faridabad, known for his expertise in oncology and robotic-assisted cancer surgeries.
Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove the prostate gland in men diagnosed with prostate cancer. It is performed using advanced robotic systems such as the SSI Mantra 3.0 or da Vinci Surgical System, which allow surgeons to operate with enhanced precision, dexterity, and control.
Instead of large incisions, robotic surgery uses a few tiny incisions through which robotic arms equipped with surgical instruments and a high-definition 3D camera are inserted.
The robotic system filters hand tremors and allows 360-degree movement, enabling extremely precise dissection and suturing.
Tiny incisions and refined control significantly reduce intraoperative blood loss, decreasing the need for blood transfusion.
Patients typically experience quicker recovery, shorter hospital stays, and a faster return to normal activities compared to traditional surgery.
Smaller incisions result in less post-operative pain and minimal scarring.
Robotic prostate surgery often leads to better preservation of urinary continence and erectile function.
India offers cutting-edge medical technology, experienced surgical teams, and significantly lower treatment costs compared to many Western countries.

Anesthesia & Preparation
The patient is placed under general anesthesia.
Robotic Surgery Begins
The surgeon controls robotic arms from a console while performing the prostate removal through small incisions.
Lymph Node Removal (if necessary)
Depending on the cancer stage, nearby lymph nodes may also be removed for analysis.
Post-Surgery Monitoring
Patients are closely monitored for recovery and discharged within 1–3 days.
Most patients walk on the day after surgery
Catheter is typically removed in 7–10 days
Light activity can resume within a week
Full recovery is expected in 4–6 weeks
Regular follow-ups with PSA testing to monitor cancer recurrence
Robotic surgery for prostate cancer in India shows excellent outcomes when performed by experienced surgeons like Dr. Sumant Gupta. Studies indicate:
Cancer control rate: Over 90% for localized cancer
Continence preservation: 85–95%
