Single-port robotic kidney surgery is one of the newer directions in minimally invasive urology. Instead of several separate abdominal incisions, the whole robotic system enters the body through one small opening. For someone who has just been told there is a mass on the kidney, this immediately raises very practical questions: how much of the […]
Recovery after robotic prostate surgery is usually faster than recovery following traditional open prostatectomy, but returning to normal life happens in stages rather than overnight. Many patients can walk shortly after surgery and leave the hospital relatively early, while urinary control, physical stamina, and sexual function may require weeks or months to recover. For men […]
Will I lose sexual function after prostate surgery? This is one of the most common and most important questions men ask before radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. The honest answer is that prostate surgery can affect erections, orgasm, and sexual confidence, but the degree of impact depends on many factors, including age, preoperative erectile function, […]
Robotic-assisted prostatectomy has become the gold standard for the surgical treatment of localized prostate cancer. Over the past decade, the evolution from multi-port robotic prostatectomy to single port robotic prostatectomy has introduced new possibilities in minimally invasive urologic surgery. But for patients, the most important question remains: which approach offers better outcomes, faster recovery, and […]
Prof. Dr. Murat Binbay has successfully completed his 15th single port robotic radical prostatectomy in Istanbul, marking another milestone in the advancement of single port robotic surgery in Turkey. With zero drain usage, zero intensive care unit admissions, and a 100% procedural success rate, these outcomes position him among the leading pioneers of single port […]
Single Port Robotic Surgery in Urology is reshaping how complex urologic procedures are planned, performed, and experienced by patients. By enabling surgeons to operate through a single incision, this advanced robotic approach minimizes tissue trauma while preserving the precision required for oncologic and reconstructive outcomes. As adoption increases across leading centers, understanding its clinical advantages […]
Robotic surgery has revolutionized modern medicine, especially in urology, where precision and minimal invasiveness are key to successful outcomes. The da Vinci® Single Port surgical system, developed by Intuitive, represents the next evolution of robotic technology—allowing complex procedures to be performed through a single incision smaller than three centimetres. For patients and surgeons alike, this […]
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in urologic oncology is transforming how patients heal after major procedures. By combining evidence-based protocols with multidisciplinary collaboration, ERAS improves outcomes while reducing hospital stays and complications. ERAS protocols are now considered a cornerstone of modern perioperative care. Particularly in the realm of urologic cancer surgeries—such as radical prostatectomy, cystectomy, […]

The landscape of surgical oncology has evolved dramatically over the past two decades, particularly in the field of urologic cancers. Traditional open surgery — once the gold standard — has gradually been replaced by minimally invasive techniques, driven by the promise of reduced morbidity, faster recovery, and comparable oncologic outcomes. Among these advances, robot-assisted surgery […]
