Why Patients Travel to India for Robotic Prostatectomy

Robotic prostatectomy is an operation where the surgeon matters far more than the equipment. Every large Indian centre has similar machines. What differs is how many of these operations the person at the console has done.

1. Surgeon Volume Is the Variable That Counts

The evidence on this operation points consistently in one direction: outcomes track the surgeon's experience with the specific procedure more closely than any other single factor. The large Indian centres run enough volume that their prostate surgeons operate regularly rather than occasionally.

Ask how many robotic prostatectomies your surgeon has performed, and how many they do in a typical month. Ask it directly. Nobody who does this work often is offended by the question.

2. Established Programmes Rather Than New Ones

Robotic surgery has been running at the major Indian hospitals for long enough that the supporting structure exists around it: theatre teams used to the setup, anaesthetists familiar with the positioning, and pathology geared to reporting these specimens properly.

A new robot in a hospital that has just bought one is a different proposition from an established unit. Ask how long the programme has been running.

3. The Plan Should Come From a Board

Prostate cancer is one of the areas where the decision to operate at all deserves scrutiny. Some cancers found on biopsy are better monitored than removed, and radiotherapy is a genuine alternative to surgery for many men rather than a fallback.

Your case should go to a multidisciplinary meeting where the urologist, medical oncologist, radiation oncologist, radiologist and pathologist agree the plan together. Ask whether it will, and ask for the conclusion in writing.

4. Consultations in English

Clinical work at the major centres runs in English, so you can read your own pathology and imaging reports and take home a discharge summary your own doctors can act on. Interpreters for Arabic, French, Russian and Kiswahili are available at most of these hospitals, booked before you arrive.

5. Cost, and the Honest Caveat

Cost in India is usually lower than in Europe, North America or the Gulf. Within India, robotic surgery costs more than laparoscopic, which costs more than open.

That price difference is not reliably matched by a difference in outcome for every patient, and you should know that before paying for it. Before you commit, get:

An itemised written estimate from the hospital, not from an intermediary
A clear statement of what it excludes, including any treatment that may be needed afterwards
Written confirmation of both

The indicative ranges further down this page are a starting point rather than a quote. Any figure given before someone has read your staging is a guess.

When Not to Travel

If a competent robotic or open prostatectomy is available near home, staying is usually better. Recovery from this operation runs over months, not weeks, and the follow-up is long.

Travel earns its place where local surgical volume is low, where you want a second opinion on whether to operate at all, or where the subspecialty expertise you need is not available where you live.

About Robotic Prostatectomy

1. What Robotic Radical Prostatectomy Involves

Robotic radical prostatectomy is the removal of the whole prostate gland, with the seminal vesicles, as treatment for prostate cancer. Once the gland is out, the bladder is reconnected directly to the urethra. Access is through several small abdominal incisions rather than one long one.

The word robotic describes how the surgeon reaches the prostate. It does not describe a different operation. The surgeon sits at a console in the same theatre and controls every instrument and every movement, while the system holds the instruments and camera, scales hand movements down and filters natural tremor. Nothing about it acts on its own.

Robotic access is one route to radical prostatectomy. Whether radical prostatectomy is the right treatment for you at all is a separate question, and it turns on the characteristics of your cancer, your general health, your life expectancy and what matters to you.

2. Who May Be a Candidate

Surgery is generally considered where the cancer appears confined to the gland, in patients well enough for a substantial operation and with enough life expectancy for treating the cancer to be worthwhile.

No single test decides this. Assessment weighs several findings together:

PSA, and the direction it has moved over time
The biopsy result, including how many cores contain cancer
Grade Group, derived from the Gleason score
Prostate MRI, particularly what it shows about the gland capsule
Clinical stage
Where in the gland the tumour sits and how far it reaches
The risk category these produce together
Life expectancy, and fitness for a general anaesthetic
Your own priorities, including the weight you give to continence and sexual function

Being a candidate and being well served by surgery are not the same thing. Some cancers are better monitored, some respond as well to radiotherapy, and some need systemic treatment as the central approach.

3. Is Surgery Right for Every Prostate Cancer?

No. Prostate cancer spans disease that may never cause harm through to cancer that has already spread, and treatment is matched to risk category rather than applied uniformly.

Low-risk disease

Active surveillance is a recognised management strategy for appropriately selected low-risk patients in guidance from the European Association of Urology and the American Urological Association. The cancer is monitored through PSA, examination, imaging and repeat biopsy, and treated only if it shows signs of progressing.

This is not a lesser option, and it is not the same as leaving cancer untreated. For some men it avoids or postpones treatment side effects without compromising cancer control. Ask whether you qualify for it before agreeing to an operation.

Intermediate-risk disease

This category covers a wide span, and guidance generally separates favourable from unfavourable subgroups. Radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy are both established treatments here, and for some favourable cases surveillance may still be discussed.

Which applies depends on your subgroup, your life expectancy, your other conditions and how you weigh the different side effect profiles. Neither surgery nor radiotherapy is automatically the better choice.

High-risk and locally advanced disease

Selected patients may have radical prostatectomy, usually as one part of a wider strategy rather than as a single definitive treatment. Additional radiotherapy or systemic treatment may be planned from the start or added depending on what surgery and pathology reveal.

Management here commonly involves more than one specialty. If you fall into this group, multidisciplinary discussion matters more rather than less.

Metastatic disease

Where the cancer has spread beyond the pelvis, radical prostatectomy is not generally the default treatment, and systemic therapy is usually central to management.

Surgery may have a role in particular circumstances, but it is not the standard approach and should not be offered as though it were. If you have been told the disease has spread and surgery has been proposed as your primary treatment, get a second opinion before proceeding.

4. How the Decision Is Reached

Assessment usually follows a recognised sequence, though patients do not all move through it in the same order and steps are sometimes repeated or omitted depending on the clinical picture.

PSA testing. A blood measurement that may prompt investigation. Several things raise PSA and most of them are not cancer.

Prostate MRI. Imaging that can identify suspicious areas, guide where the biopsy is taken from, and indicate whether disease extends past the gland. Scanning before biopsy is now common where MRI is available.

Biopsy. Tissue sampling establishes whether cancer is present and how it is graded. Diagnosis rests on a biopsy confirming the cancer, never on PSA alone.

Grade Group and Gleason score. The pathologist grades how abnormal the cells look, and this is among the strongest indicators of how the disease will behave.

Clinical staging. How far the cancer extends, assessed from examination, imaging and biopsy together.

Risk classification. The findings above combine into a category, and that category determines which treatments are worth discussing.

Life expectancy and general health. Relevant because some prostate cancers progress slowly enough that treatment offers little to a patient whose life expectancy is limited by something else.

Further imaging where indicated. In selected higher-risk cases, additional staging imaging such as PSMA PET/CT may be arranged to look for spread.

Discussion of options. Treatments are set out with their benefits and side effects, ideally after multidisciplinary review.

Surgery, where appropriate. The operation proceeds only where it is the agreed approach for that individual.

5. Records to Bring to a Consultation

An opinion given without your documents is provisional. Whether you are seen in clinic or reviewed remotely, send or bring:

Every PSA result with its date, so the trend is visible rather than one number
The prostate MRI report and, where possible, the image files themselves
The full biopsy report, including how many cores were taken and how many were involved
Grade Group and Gleason score
Any other pathology reports
PSMA PET/CT or other staging imaging where it has been done
Records of previous prostate treatment, including procedures for an enlarged prostate
Your current medicines
Medical history, particularly heart, lung and bleeding conditions
Operative reports from any previous abdominal or pelvic surgery

These determine whether nerve preservation can be considered, whether lymph node dissection is likely, and whether surgery is the right treatment at all.

6. Robotic, Laparoscopic and Open Surgery Compared

All three are routes to the same operation. The gland removed is identical, and cancer outcome depends principally on selecting the right patient and operating well rather than on which route was taken.

Open radical prostatectomy. One lower abdominal incision, with direct tactile feedback for the surgeon. Generally more blood loss and a longer stay than the minimally invasive routes. Still a good operation in experienced hands.

Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. Several small incisions, long rigid instruments, a camera view. Technically demanding, and less commonly offered for prostate work now that robotic systems are widespread.

Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy. Several small incisions, instruments on robotic arms driven from a console. Magnified three-dimensional vision, instruments that articulate past the range of a wrist, tremor filtered out. Generally less blood loss, a shorter stay and quicker return to activity.

What the evidence does not show is a clear cancer-control advantage for the robotic route. Randomised comparison against open surgery has not demonstrated better oncological outcomes, and long-term urinary and sexual function have come out broadly similar.

The conclusion follows plainly. A surgeon experienced in the route they use most is a better choice than a less experienced surgeon using a newer one. A robotic system in a hospital tells you about its equipment budget rather than its results.

For the operative detail itself, how the procedure is performed sets out what happens in theatre.

This is also the point at which patients most often confuse two different operations. TURP, which treats obstruction rather than cancer, removes only the tissue blocking the flow and leaves the gland in place. Being told you need prostate surgery is not enough information.

7. Nerve-Sparing Surgery

Nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy means preserving the neurovascular bundles running alongside the prostate, which carry the nerves involved in erectile function. Where the cancer allows, the surgeon separates those bundles from the gland instead of removing them with it.

Feasibility depends on where the tumour sits, its grade and extent, and what the MRI showed about the capsule. Preservation may be possible on both sides, on one, or on neither.

Cancer control comes first, and the decision can change during the operation based on what the surgeon finds. Sparing nerve tissue at the cost of leaving cancer behind serves nobody.

Preservation improves the chance that erectile function recovers. It does not assure it, and the outcome also depends on age, function beforehand and other health factors. Where a wider margin including nerve tissue has to be taken, some centres offer a nerve graft from the leg, which should be discussed before surgery rather than raised afterwards.

8. Pelvic Lymph-Node Dissection

Pelvic lymph-node dissection means removing pelvic lymph nodes during the same operation so a pathologist can examine them. It establishes whether disease has reached the nodes rather than estimating it from imaging.

It is not done for everyone. Decisions are generally guided by risk category and the estimated probability of node involvement, so many low-risk patients will not need it while it is commonly recommended in higher-risk cases.

Removing nodes lengthens the operation and adds its own risks, including a collection of lymph fluid in the pelvis. Ask whether dissection is planned for you, how extensive it would be, and what a positive finding would change about your treatment.

9. Risks and Side Effects

This is major surgery with recognised risks. The two that most affect life afterwards are urinary and sexual, and both belong in the conversation before you consent rather than after.

No percentages appear below. Published figures vary widely by patient population, by surgeon, by how the outcome was defined and by how long patients were followed, so a number quoted without those details is not information. Ask your own surgeon for their own figures and the definitions behind them.

Urinary incontinence

Leakage is common once the catheter comes out. Most patients improve substantially over the following months and many regain full control, while a minority are left with leakage that needs further treatment.

Age, control before surgery, the operation itself and consistent pelvic floor exercise all influence the result. Starting those exercises before the operation is generally advised.

Erectile dysfunction

Function usually falls sharply after surgery, then returns gradually over one to two years and sometimes longer. Recovery may be partial, and for some men function does not return to what it was.

What you had beforehand, your age, whether nerves could be preserved, and other conditions affecting blood vessels and nerves all bear on it. Rehabilitation approaches exist and are generally begun early rather than deferred.

Infertility

Radical prostatectomy causes permanent infertility. The prostate and seminal vesicles produce most of the fluid in semen and both are removed, so ejaculation no longer happens. Orgasm remains possible for many patients, without ejaculate.

Natural conception is not possible afterwards. If there is any chance you would want biological children, sperm storage must be arranged before surgery, because it cannot be done later. Raise it at your first consultation rather than waiting to be asked.

Bleeding

Any operation this size can bleed, and transfusion is occasionally needed. Blood loss is generally lower with the minimally invasive routes than with open surgery.

Infection

Infection may affect the urinary tract, the incision sites or, less often, the chest. A catheter left in place is itself a route for urinary infection.

Blood clots

Clots can form in the leg veins and rarely travel to the lungs. Early mobilisation and compression are routine, with additional measures depending on your risk.

Anaesthetic risk

The operation needs a general anaesthetic and positioning that is demanding for some patients. Existing heart and lung conditions matter and should be declared fully.

Injury to nearby structures

The prostate lies close to the bladder, rectum, ureters and major vessels. Injury is uncommon but recognised and can be serious.

A leak may develop early at the join between bladder and urethra, and a narrowing can form there later, sometimes needing a stricture repair.

Lymphocele

Where nodes have been removed, lymph fluid can collect in the pelvis. Many collections cause no symptoms and settle on their own, while some cause pain or pressure and need draining.

10. Recovery, Stage by Stage

Recovery varies between patients and depends on the surgeon's protocol, how extensive the operation was and your own progress. What follows is the usual pattern, not a timetable you should expect to match.

Immediately after surgery

You wake in a recovery area with a urinary catheter already in place and pain relief provided. The operation itself commonly takes two to three hours.

In hospital

Most patients stay a small number of nights. Walking is usually encouraged from the day after surgery and breathing exercises may be advised. You will normally go home with the catheter still in.

The catheter period

The catheter stays while the join between bladder and urethra heals, commonly one to two weeks, and comes out at a follow-up visit. Some units image the join before removing it.

Do not undertake long-distance travel with the catheter in place, or straight after its removal, until you have passed urine successfully and been reviewed.

The first few weeks

Fatigue is normal and usually underestimated. Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise are typically restricted for around four weeks, driving is usually avoided for a similar period, and sexual activity is generally deferred for four to six weeks.

Protocols differ between units, so ask for your surgeon's specific restrictions in writing.

Returning to normal activity

Most patients resume ordinary daily life within several weeks, with demanding work or exercise taking longer. Recovery is not linear, and setbacks are common rather than a sign something has gone wrong.

Urinary recovery

Continence usually improves over months rather than days, and pelvic floor exercises done consistently are the mainstay. Leakage persisting beyond the expected period should be reviewed rather than accepted.

Sexual function recovery

This is the slowest element and may continue over one to two years. It is generally managed actively rather than waited out, so ask what is available before you leave.

Long-term follow-up

PSA monitoring continues for years at intervals your team sets. Follow-up is not a formality: it is how recurrence is caught early enough to treat.

11. The Pathology Report

The removed prostate goes to a pathologist, and the resulting report is more accurate than anything a scan could establish beforehand. It commonly assesses:

The type of cancer
Grade Group and Gleason characteristics, which may differ from the biopsy finding
Pathological stage, including whether disease reached beyond the gland
Surgical margins, meaning whether cancer reached the cut edge of the removed tissue
Lymph node involvement, where nodes were taken
Other features, such as involvement of the seminal vesicles

This report determines what happens next. It may confirm the pre-operative picture, or show more disease than expected and prompt discussion of further treatment.

Ask for a copy before you leave the country and ask your surgeon to explain what each element means for you. Ask also, before the operation, what the plan would be if the pathology came back less favourable than the imaging suggested.

12. PSA Monitoring After Surgery

With the prostate removed, PSA should fall to a very low level, because the gland producing most of it is gone. PSA then becomes the main monitoring tool.

Testing usually starts some weeks after surgery and continues at intervals your team sets, often for years. Clinical review runs alongside it, the pathology report shapes how closely you are watched, and imaging is used when there is a specific reason rather than as routine.

What a rising PSA may mean

A rising PSA after prostatectomy may indicate that prostate cancer cells remain somewhere. It does not by itself mean the cancer has returned in a form needing immediate treatment, and one detectable reading is not a diagnosis.

Interpretation depends on the context: how high the value is, how fast it is moving, which laboratory assay produced it, how long after surgery it was taken, and what the pathology showed. A very low but detectable value may be watched with repeat testing rather than acted on.

The clinical term is biochemical recurrence, and definitions of it differ between guidelines and assays. If your PSA becomes detectable, the right response is repeat measurement and discussion. Ask which threshold your team works to and what they would do at each stage.

13. When Further Treatment May Be Needed

Some patients need additional treatment or investigation after surgery. Whether that applies depends on the pathology findings, how PSA behaves, the risk category, imaging and whether recurrence is identified.

Further treatment may involve radiotherapy to the area where the prostate was, systemic treatment, or a combination. The timing is itself a clinical judgement: some patients are treated soon after surgery on the basis of pathology, others are monitored and treated only if PSA rises.

No page can tell you which applies to you. What it can do is tell you to ask in advance, so an unfavourable pathology report is something you were prepared for rather than something that blindsides you.

14. Choosing a Surgeon

Years in practice is a weak measure on its own, and a long career does not by itself indicate better surgical results. Weigh these instead:

Qualification in urology, with specific training or fellowship in uro-oncology
How much of the surgeon's practice is prostate cancer rather than general urology
Volume of robotic radical prostatectomy specifically, not robotic surgery generally
Experience with nerve preservation where that applies to your case
Whether the hospital has an established programme rather than recent equipment
Access to a multidisciplinary meeting, and evidence cases actually go through it
Whether specimens are reported by pathologists who see prostate work regularly
Follow-up arrangements, including remote review if you live abroad
Whether the surgeon reviews your imaging and pathology personally
How clearly they explain uncertainty, and whether risks come up unprompted
Transparency about costs, including what an estimate excludes

15. Questions to Ask Before You Consent

Written answers are more useful than verbal ones, particularly if you are travelling.

How many robotic radical prostatectomies do you perform in a year, and in a typical month?
How long have you performed this operation, and how long has the hospital's programme run?
What proportion of your practice is prostate cancer and uro-oncology?
Am I a candidate for nerve-sparing surgery, on one side or both?
Do I need pelvic lymph-node dissection, and what would the result change?
What are my alternatives, including surveillance and radiotherapy, and why do you recommend surgery for me?
What effect might this have on urinary continence, and what support is available?
What effect might this have on erectile function, and when would rehabilitation begin?
Could this affect my fertility, and should I store sperm beforehand?
Who reports my pathology, and when will I receive it?
How will my PSA be monitored, and at what intervals?
What happens if my PSA rises, and at what level would you act?
Might I need further treatment, and what would that involve?
What happens, and who pays, if a complication develops while I am still in India?

16. What It Costs in India

Robotic prostatectomy in India is commonly quoted from around 6,500 US dollars upward. Published hospital-level quotes for Delhi and the surrounding region sit above that:

Indraprastha Apollo, Delhi: about 8,000 dollars
Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram: about 8,500 dollars
Max Super Speciality, Delhi: about 9,000 dollars

Those are indicative published figures, checked in August 2026, and not quotes. Confirm any number in writing with the hospital before you rely on it.

City is a weaker variable than most cost pages imply. Platforms that aggregate package pricing across Indian hospitals publish an identical range for every major metro, at roughly 4,500 to 10,000 dollars for prostatectomy by any technique.

Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai all sit in that same band, with smaller cities coming in lower. Robotic surgery generally sits at or above the top of any prostatectomy range, because the technique is the main thing driving the price.

What actually varies is the hospital, not the city. The three quotes above span a thousand dollars between hospitals in one region, which is wider than the gap between Indian metros.

Where a package is quoted, it commonly covers the room, surgeon and consultant fees, airport transfers, local transport, meals and a stay for one companion, and a period of hotel accommodation after discharge. It commonly excludes:

Any stay beyond the package days
Consultations with specialists outside the surgical team
Complications and their treatment
Treatment before or after surgery, including radiotherapy if the pathology calls for it
Intensive care, if it becomes necessary
Your flights, and reviews after you return home

Budget for time as well as money, and note that published guidance disagrees on how much. Some sources suggest a minimum of twelve days in the country, others roughly three weeks after discharge. The real answer depends on when your catheter comes out and how the first review goes.

If radiotherapy rather than surgery turns out to be the better option, the cost picture changes completely. Published pricing for proton beam therapy in India runs from about 12,000 dollars for a short course up to roughly 49,900 for a full course for patients from SAARC countries, and from about 21,500 to 69,900 dollars for other international patients. Ask which pricing tier applies to your nationality before comparing anything.

17. How India Compares With Other Destinations

The figures below come from published cross-country pricing for prostatectomy, checked in August 2026, in US dollars. They are published ranges rather than quotes, and they are not comparable line for line, because what a package includes differs by country as much as the price does.

Vietnam: about 4,000 to 8,000
India: about 4,000 to 10,000
Turkey: about 6,000 to 15,000
Saudi Arabia: about 8,000 to 15,000
Malaysia: about 8,000 to 15,000
Singapore: about 10,000 to 24,000
United Arab Emirates: about 10,000 to 80,000
Thailand: about 12,000 to 23,000
United Kingdom: about 14,000 to 30,000
Israel: about 18,000 to 40,000

The United States does not appear in the source we used, so we have not estimated it.

Read the width of each range, not just its floor. The UAE spans eight times its own lower figure, which again tells you the hospital chosen matters more than the country. India's range is comparatively narrow, and the low end of any range is a starting price for an uncomplicated case rather than a likely total.

Cost is also the wrong first question. For this operation the surgeon's volume with this specific procedure predicts your result more reliably than the country does.

How to Select the Best Doctor for Robotic Prostatectomy in India?

Choosing the right urology surgeon for robotic prostatectomy is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:

Experience and Expertise

Look for a surgeon with a strong track record in robotic prostatectomy specifically, not just urology in general. Years of listed experience — shown on every profile below — is a reasonable starting point.

Specialization

Check that the doctor's listed procedures actually include robotic prostatectomy (see the doctor cards below) rather than only general urology.

Hospital Affiliation

The hospital matters as much as the surgeon. Look for an accredited centre with a dedicated urology unit, ICU support, and experience treating international patients — see "Hospitals where these doctors operate" below.

Communication and Second Opinions

You should be able to get clear answers about your case before committing to travel. Ask for a written second opinion on your reports, in a language you're comfortable in, before you decide.

Transparent Costs

Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — surgeon's fee, hospital charges and stay — before you travel, so there are no surprises once treatment begins. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about Robotic Prostatectomy in India

What is robotic radical prostatectomy?

It is the removal of the entire prostate gland because that gland contains cancer, along with the seminal vesicles behind it, after which the bladder is rejoined to the urethra. Around six keyhole openings are used instead of one long incision. The surgeon controls every instrument from a console in the theatre, and the system itself decides and moves nothing.

Who is a candidate for robotic prostatectomy?

The operation suits cancer still confined to the gland, usually staged T1 or T2, in men fit enough for a long procedure with enough years ahead to benefit. Fitness and body weight affect the difficulty without being absolute barriers. Some men with more advanced disease still gain from surgery. Ask what active surveillance or radiotherapy would mean for you before you consent to anything.

Is robotic prostatectomy better than open surgery?

They treat different problems. TURP relieves obstruction caused by an enlarged prostate and removes only the tissue in the way, leaving the gland in place. Radical prostatectomy removes the entire prostate because it contains cancer. Being told you need "prostate surgery" is not enough information, so ask which operation is proposed and why.

Will I be able to father children after this operation?

Not naturally. The prostate and seminal vesicles are removed, and they produce most of the fluid in semen, so there is no ejaculate afterwards and orgasm remains possible while ejaculation does not. If there is any chance you would want biological children, sperm storage has to happen before surgery. It is quick and simple beforehand and impossible afterwards, so raise it at your first consultation.

How is this different from TURP?

They treat different problems. TURP relieves obstruction from an enlarged prostate and removes only the tissue in the way, leaving the gland in place. Radical prostatectomy removes the whole gland because it contains cancer. Being told you need prostate surgery is not enough information, so ask which operation is proposed and why.

How much does robotic prostatectomy cost in India?

Published pricing starts from around 6,500 US dollars and rises with the hospital, the surgeon and the length of stay. Quotes published for Delhi-region hospitals sit at roughly 8,000 to 9,000 dollars. Those are indicative figures rather than quotes, checked in August 2026. Send your reports, ask the hospital for an itemised written estimate, check the exclusions, and get it in writing before booking flights.

Which hospitals offer robotic prostatectomy in India?

Robotic programmes run at large accredited centres across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Chennai. Rather than publish a list we cannot keep current, the doctor listing on this page shows which hospital each surgeon operates at, and the city pages narrow it further. Ask whichever you shortlist how long its robotic programme has been running.

Who are the leading robotic prostatectomy surgeons in India?

No honest ranking is possible, because the outcome figures that would produce one are not published. We rank no surgeons and would treat any site claiming to with caution. This page orders doctors by years of listed experience, which is a sort rather than a verdict. Decide on monthly volume of this specific operation, the age of the unit, and the surgeon's own complication figures.

How many days do I need to stay in India?

More than the hospital admission suggests. Discharge usually follows one to three nights with the catheter still in place, and it comes out at a review around ten days later. Published guidance on total time in the country runs from about twelve days to three weeks. Ask your surgeon for a written timeline and treat the shorter figure as a minimum.

How soon can I fly after prostatectomy?

Only once the catheter has been removed, you have passed urine successfully and you have been reviewed. Booking flights around the discharge date is the commonest travel mistake with this operation, because discharge comes well before fitness to fly. Get the earliest sensible date confirmed in writing and buy a changeable ticket where you can.
