nerve-sparing surgery

Nerve-sparing surgery is a surgical technique aimed at removing tumors or diseased tissue while preserving nearby nerves to maintain their function. This approach is particularly important in surgeries involving sensitive areas like the prostate or bladder, where nerve damage can lead to complications such as impotence or incontinence. Surgeons use advanced techniques to carefully navigate around nerves, minimizing risk. The goal is to achieve successful treatment outcomes while enhancing the patient's quality of life by reducing potential side effects associated with nerve damage.
