Prostatectomy is the operation performed to remove the prostate gland along with its surrounding tissues.
This generally involves the seminal vesicles plus some surrounding lymph nodes. The goal of this treatment is to treat prostate cancer but that is possible only if cancer has not spread further than the prostate.
During Prostatectomy, the extracted prostate observed with a microscope to check whether prostate cancer reached the prostate’s edge or not. If it has reached the edges then it has probably spread further as well, and so additional treatments are required in this case.
Prostatectomy treatment is an ideal resolution for men below the age of 75 plus who have a life expectancy of at least a decade or more. These people can get the most out of the Prostatectomy.
At first, the risk of cancer’s spread is confirmed with the help of the results of the PSA level and the biopsy report. For more detailed testing, CT scans, MRI scans, bone scans, and ultrasound can be performed.
If the test reveals that cancer has not spread further than the surgeon might recommend other treatment options which include hormone therapy or radiation therapy, etc.
Similar to the cost of other surgical treatments for cancer, the prostatectomy cost also varies from patient to patient depending on the severity and spread of cancer.
Hence there is an estimated range for the cost which is from $10,100 to $135,000 in the United States.
