It is a disease that does not cause symptoms until it is very advanced, which is why it is considered a silent killer. Approximately 1 in 6 men will develop prostate cancer.&nbsp;&#8220;That&#8217;s why we emphasise regular preventive check-ups,&#8221; <strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">says the specialist.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5 wp-block-paragraph\">He says this disease has been studied extensively throughout medical history, and as a result some factors associated with its onset have been identified, such as older age, especially after 50, being African American, and a family history of <strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">prostate cancer and breast or ovarian cancer.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6 wp-block-paragraph\">Other factors include a high-fat diet and\/or obesity, smoking and a sedentary lifestyle. These factors are associated with the development of prostate cancer; however, the most important is a family history of prostate cancer, or genetic factors, <strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">stresses&nbsp;the robotic prostate surgery specialist.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When to see a urologist, and diagnosis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">The&nbsp;director of the surgery programme&nbsp;at the &#8220;Samadi-Homs-Robotic Institute&#8221; <\/mark><\/strong>says every man over 40 should see his urologist for an assessment, at least with a blood test. But of course, the population at highest risk is older men (60 years). &#8220;If you are over 40 and have a family history of prostate cancer, you should go for an assessment; early detection is very important for any diagnosis.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">This condition can be detected with a simple blood test (PSA) or a digital rectal exam, although a diagnosis will always need to be confirmed by a prostate biopsy.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-10 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Treatments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-11 wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Samadi, who developed the SMART surgery technique for removing a cancerous prostate,<\/strong> explains that treatment options initially depend on the type of prostate cancer and the patient&#8217;s characteristics.<\/mark> These therapies range from active surveillance (no intervention) to removal of the prostate. Among surgical approaches, robotic surgery is superior in terms of cancer control and a lower risk of complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Advantages of robotic prostate surgery<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-13 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Robot-assisted prostate surgery,<\/mark><\/strong> performed by an experienced surgeon following proper protocol, tends to be associated with better cancer control, a shorter recovery period and a lower risk of complications such as erectile dysfunction and incontinence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-14 wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Surgery using the SMART technique<\/strong> can be performed in 1 to 1.5 hours,  compared with other approaches and surgeons that take 4-6 hours.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-15 wp-block-paragraph\">Time in the operating theatre directly affects recovery time. The shorter the operation, the shorter the recovery and the lower the risk of complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-16 wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;My patients walk 4 hours after surgery and are discharged the next day; the catheter is removed 7 to 10 days after the operation, and after 15-20 days they can start returning to their daily activities,&#8221; <strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">explains the oncologist, who has performed more than 680 robotic prostate surgeries at the Samadi-Homs-Robotic Institute on patients aged 40 to 75.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-17 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"color:#073f4e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">For preventive check-ups with Dr. Samadi at the Samadi-HOMS Robotic Oncology Institute in Santiago, call 809-399-0569 for a free phone consultation.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Find out more about <mark><a href=\"https:\/\/afcomunicacion.com\/nosotros\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff;color:#0b5d8c\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">AF Comunicaci\u00f3n Estrat\u00e9gica<\/span><\/mark><\/a><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/afcomunicacion.com\/nosotros\/\"> <\/a>and&nbsp;<\/mark><a href=\"https:\/\/afcomunicacion.com\/nuestros-clientes\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff;color:#0b5d8c\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">its clients<\/span><\/mark><\/a><\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the last quarter of the year, ultrasounds, bone density scans, breast MRIs and multiparametric prostate MRIs, as well as radiotherapy treatments, will be free of co-payment at HOMS for both men and women.
