Whether prostate surgery is a major operation depends on the specific type of disease, degree of illness and specific surgical methods. If it is prostate cancer surgery, it is a relatively large surgery, because it needs to remove the prostate and adjacent tissues, and carry out lymph node dissection to prevent recurrence of prostate cancer. If it is a benign prostatic hyperplasia operation, it is a moderate operation. At present, minimally invasive methods are mainly used, including transurethral laser enucleation, transurethral plasma resection of the prostate, etc. Compared with traditional methods, it has less trauma, less bleeding, and fewer complications. However, there are certain risks in any operation. Bleeding may occur during prostate operation, infection may occur after operation, and urination symptoms cannot be alleviated in time. Therefore, it is recommended to consult a specialist in detail before operation to understand the operation risks.
