Better Stream: Robotic Simple Prostatectomy for the Treatment of BPH

- In this episode we discuss robotic simple prostatectomy for men with urinary symptoms due to an enlarged prostate (BPH). In prior episodes, we have discussed several treatment options for BPH including medications and a variety of procedures. But what if the medications don’t work and the prostate is just too big to qualify for minimally invasive surgical procedures? Fortunately, robotic simple prostatectomy has emerged as a potential option for men in this situation. But, how does this procedure work? What are the risks? How long is the recovery? And how successful is it in relieving urinary symptoms of BPH for the long haul. To help us answer these questions, we are fortunate to be joined by Dr. Daniel Eun. Dr. Eun is a professor of urology and director of the Robotic Urologic Surgery Clinical Fellowship Program at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University. He is also the chief of robotic surgery and the director of minimally invasive robotic urologic oncology and reconstructive surgery at Temple University Hospital. Aside from performing over 1000 robotic surgical procedures, Dr Eun has also extensively published peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters, and video teaching guides and travels nationally and internationally as an invited lecturer to present research and to train robotic surgeons.

For many of us that are going through this experience, this is very informative, helpful, and even reassuring. Thank you for taking time to do this.
Thank you for the feedback!
I have a huge prostate. My urologist recommended I get this procedure done. He does not do it.
Excellent in formation!
I would like to know the cost
Well done. I am having one done in a few weeks.
This is the best, most complete detailed description of Robotic Simple Prostatectomy I've discovered.
Thank you!
Having the procedure here locally next month. You have helped tremendously to relieve many of my concerns. Just live too far away and have to trust my local urologist. Thanks especially for the final question. It is so reassuring to see highly successful doctors that are not egotistically minded and acknowledge where their skills and success really come from. Faith is truly important in all of life's endeavors. Thanks Again!
How are you feeling April 2023!
Awesome interview. I am a week away from having this surgery done by a urologist who trained under Dr Eun. Feeling very comfortable now. Thanks!
How did it go, and how are you feeling in April 2023. Cheers!
I'm having this treatment done in 4 weeks.
80 to 90 prostate procedure to reserve continence and sexual function?
I had simple prostatectomy (non-robotic) at the beginning of the year. It went well and I’m peeing like a teenager.
Congratulations!
How long was the recovery , and why not the Robotic? Cheers!

@@jerryspeckien1351 Is that a code? What are you saying?
I had a catheter in for 10 days. Was sore for that time period but was up and walking. At two weeks started light exercise. My doctor recommended simple because of the size of my prostate. He does both open and robotic.
@@jorgehelmer5963 Thank you for sharing. I am going to have the same journey.
Will the prostate “excess” that is removed grow back...??
Unfortunately yes, my surgeon tells me it should last for at least 10-12 years before possibly needing another operation
I had it in Ohio in 2024. $127,000. It bleed for a month, now is is fine.
? Robotic Simple Prostatectomy $10,900
