The most popular prostate cancer surgery is robotic keyhole surgery, also called a laparoscopic surgery. This surgery has been performed on thousands of men. It has become popular because it is minimally invasive - not requiring large incisions and uses the da Vinci robotics system. Doctors use robotic arms and special instruments while performing the surgery. In fact, keyhole surgery uses a small incision and that's why it's called a keyhole surgery. There are other types of keyhole surgeries on other parts of the body as well.It has become the prostate cancer surgery of choice for many because of the smaller incision meaning a day less in the hospital and a shorter recovery time.Now a new study involving 9000 men with prostate cancer show there are risks that hadn't been addressed before. Some with traditional prostate surgery and some with robotic keyhole surgery.The men who had the robotic keyhole surgery rather than the traditional prostate cancer surgery were more likely to report complications in the first 30 days after their surgery. In addition, later after about 18 months or so they reported more urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. This comes as a surprise...more

Author: Daniel Richard HopkinsBladder Cancer refers to any of the several types of malignant growths of the urinary bladder. A disease in which abnormal cells multiply without control in the bladder. The bladder is a hollow, muscular organ that stores urine; it is located in the pelvis. The most common type of bladder cancer begins in cells lining the inside of the bladder and is called transitional cell carcinoma. Smoking is the most known cause for urinary bladder and smoking causes over half of bladder cancer cases in men and a sizeable proportion in women. There is a linear relationship between smoking and risk, and quitting smoking reduces the risk. In a 10-year study involving almost 48,000 men, researchers found that men who drank 1.5L of water a day had a significantly reduced incidence of bladder cancer when compared with men who drank less than 240mL (around 1 cup) per day. Drinking water is a big help so that cancer cells won’t develop in the urinary bladder. Water or H2o is compose of one molecular structure of hydrogen and 2 for oxygen, meaning cell’s needed more amount of oxygen to function well in its system. So therefore if our body intakes a large amount of...more
