What are the sequelae of prostate cancer surgery?

Although prostate cancer is a relatively rare disease in clinical practice, there are still a small number of middle-aged and elderly men will suffer from this disease, this disease generally has no obvious symptoms in the early stage after the occurrence, and when the patient has some obvious symptoms, then it means that the patient's condition has entered the advanced stage, at this time the patient should be treated with surgery in time, but after surgical treatment, it is easy to cause some sequelae, and these sequelae are also very harmful to the patient's body and mind.So what are the sequelae of prostate cancer surgery?

When prostate cancer patients undergo surgical treatment, it is easy to damage some tissues and nerves around the prostate, and once these tissues and nerves are damaged, some sequelae will occur, and the more common sequelae in clinical practice are mainly the following two:

1. Prostate cancer patients are prone to the sequelae of urinary incontinence after surgery, and the sequelae of this kind basically appear in the total prostatectomy surgery, because after the prostate and the surrounding lymph node tissue with the possibility of metastasis, the doctor will connect the patient's urethra and bladder together, so the patient's bladder will be traction after the operation, which will lead to the patient's capacity becoming smaller, resulting in the symptoms of frequent urination. In addition, after the patient's prostate is removed, the external urethral sphincter will contract, and once the tension is reduced, the symptoms of urinary incontinence will occur.

2. Prostate cancer is still easy to cause after surgeryimpotenceIt can be said that most prostate cancer patients will appear after surgeryimpotenceBecause the translayer of the surgery will not only damage the tissues in the patient's prostate, but also cause damage to the nerves and muscles around the patient's urethra, lymph nodes, and seminal vesicles, so the patient will also have itimpotenceThe after-effects occurred.

I believe that through the above content, we have a certain understanding of the sequelae of prostate cancer patients after surgery, so after these understandings, if the patient suffers from prostate cancer in daily life, then we should be cautious when choosing surgical treatment, unless it is necessary to use surgery for treatment, if the patient's condition is relatively mild, then it is better to use other methods of treatment first.
