"As a common disease in western men, prostate cancer is a major driver for the billion-euro robotic surgery and laparoscopic devices markets.
In the surgical management of prostate cancer patients, next to the tumor resection accuracy, the surgeon’s ability to preserve the nerve-network and prevent erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence, is key.
