• Question for Dr. Brown – robotic removal recovery vs. open

  Posted by ajm222 on November 13, 2019 at 7:38 pm

  Just wondering if you thought robotic removal recovery would be any easier than open, or about the same. My placement method was robotic.

  Thanks

  Both methods offer good results.
  I prefer an open technique because I believe that I can better check the spermatic cord, local nerves, and vessels.
  But there are many surgeons who get excellent results with the robot.
  Pick a surgeon that you trust and let him/her pick the method for removal.
