Robotic Simple Prostatectomy at UPNT: Advanced Relief for Severe BPH

A Precision Surgical Solution for Enlarged Prostate in Arlington, TX – Serving All of North Texas

If you’re living with severe urinary symptoms caused by a very large prostate, and other treatments haven’t worked or aren’t an option, robotic simple prostatectomy may be the solution. At Urology Partners of North Texas (UPNT), our board-certified and board-eligible urologists use robotic-assisted technology to deliver safe, effective results with faster recovery.

What Is a Robotic Simple Prostatectomy?

A simple prostatectomy removes the inner part of the prostate that’s causing a blockage while preserving the outer capsule. Using the da Vinci® Surgical System, our surgeons operate through small incisions, giving patients faster healing and better precision than traditional open surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is this the same as surgery for prostate cancer?
No. A simple prostatectomy removes the inner prostate tissue causing obstruction. A radical prostatectomy, used for prostate cancer, removes the entire gland.
Most men maintain normal bladder control. The most common sexual side effect is retrograde ejaculation — semen flows into the bladder instead of out the urethra. This doesn’t affect orgasm or erection, but can affect fertility.
Yes — for men with very large prostates, robotic surgery is often the only effective solution.
About 5 days, which is shorter than with most open surgeries.
Most men go home the same day. Some may stay overnight based on recovery needs.
