What is retzius sparing prostatectomy?

Robotic Retzius-sparing radical prostatectomy is a surgical technique which is used for the treatment of prosate cancer. It is a minimally invasive surgical technique. The surgery involves use of a surgical robot to remove the prostate gland while sparing the Retzius space. This is a potential space between the bladder and prostate gland. During the RRP procedure, several small incisions will be made in the abdomen. The surgeon will insert small surgical instruments and a camera attached to the robotic arms.

I had my Surgery for the removal of my Prostate due to Prostate Cancer now 9 days ago. The Surgery went very well and my recovery so far has been far better than I had imagined. I was encouraged to walk and yesterday managed a two mile loop from my house without a problem.
