The radical perineal prostatectomy
is a surgery used for the treatment of prostate cancer.
The surgeon makes an incision in the perineum and then
removes the prostate gland. In perineal prostatectomy,
the nerve sparing technique is difficult to perform
while the lymph node dissection is impossible. There
is less blood loss and a shorter recovery time associated
with the perineal prostatectomy.
