• What should I know about prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer affects one in six men during their lifetime, and 80% of all men over the age of 80. We have treated many younger men who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer in their late 40s and early 50s. Modern advances in the early detection of prostate cancer and minimally invasive procedures have resulted in very high survival rates. With early treatment and support from the right team, you can enjoy a long, cancer-free life after being diagnosed and treated with prostate cancer. Our surgical teams at Surgipoint are prostate cancer specialists, focused on positive outcomes and bespoke care.

Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are solid, crystalline structures that form in the kidneys. These stones can vary in size and texture, from small and smooth and easily passed to large and rough. Larger and rougher crystals can be hard to pass through the urinary tract. This leads to pain and difficulty when urinating, among other health concerns.

Prostatectomy

A radical prostatectomy involves the removal of the prostate gland, as well as the seminal vesicles, lymph nodes, and surrounding tissues. Surgipoint offers a minimally invasive robotic radical prostatectomy, which has a consistently better rate of cancer control, as measured by the number of cancer cells left behind, than a traditional open or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

Prostate Biopsy

If prostate cancer is suspected, a prostate biopsy is performed to determine whether or not malignant cells (cancer cells) are present. This is achieved by inserting a biopsy needle into the prostate for samples, which can be sent to a lab for testing. A prostate biopsy provides insight into the health of your prostate.
