Robotic adenomectomy for benign prostatic enlargement is safe and effective. A laparoscopic dissector aids in creating a clear plane during robotic surgery, improving outcomes for this minimally invasive procedure.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) affects many men, often requiring surgical intervention.
  • Robotic surgery offers a minimally invasive approach for BPE treatment.
  • Limited reports exist on combining robotic surgery with laparoscopic techniques for BPE.

Observation:

  • A 62-year-old male with severe urinary obstruction underwent robotic-assisted adenomectomy.
  • A laparoscopic dissector was utilized to facilitate plane creation between the prostatic capsule and adenoma.
  • The procedure involved standard steps including Retzius space opening, vein complex suture, and cystotomy.

Findings:

  • The robotic adenomectomy was completed in 160 minutes with 80cc blood loss.

  • No perioperative or postoperative complications were observed.
  • Postoperative uroflowmetry showed a peak flow of 30ml/sec, and IPSS improved to 8 after 60 days.

    • Implications:

    • Robotic prostate adenomectomy with laparoscopic dissector integration is a safe and effective minimally invasive option for BPE.
    • This technique offers a novel method for precise plane dissection in robotic surgery.
    • Integrating laparoscopic tools can enhance surgical outcomes in robotic procedures for BPE.
