FAQ

I'm a smoker. Can this affect the prostate surgery? It is important to know that smoking significantly increases the risks of post-operative complications. It is advisable to stop smoking at least 6 weeks before the surgery. It is essential to inform your surgeon and the anesthesiologist that you smoke before the operation.

Can prostatic extirpation lead to a permanent inability to ejaculate? Prostatectomy can affect the patients' sexual life and compromise erectile function in particular. Even if prostatectomy leads to a permanent loss of ejaculation, sexual pleasure is still possible. In the course of a follow-up visit, your urologist will be able to offer appropriate therapeutic options.

In what circumstances, should the patient undergo dialysis after a complete nephrectomy? Slight or moderate decrease in renal function can occur after a complete nephrectomy. If the diminished renal function persists, the doctor will tell you what precautions to take to prevent it from progressing, for example by adapting drug doses, treating high blood pressure if necessary, through dietary recommendations. In a small number of cases, if kidney failure is too serious, a treatment by dialysis may become necessary.
