Such extreme cases are quite rare and are generally handled through invasive surgery, which comes with longer recovery times and respective side effects.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the urology team at Medcare opted for robotic aquablation, the latest robotic cutting-edge technique that uses a high pressure, image guided waterjet to accurately remove excess prostate tissue without the need for heat or surgical cuts. As a result of this innovative approach, the patient was able to go home within three days and resume normal urinary function without a catheter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very excited about this latest Robotic technology addition to our vast portfolio of surgical services, making Medcare one of the first healthcare providers one of only 3 medical providers offering this technology in the UAE. A prostate of this size would almost always require open surgery,\u201d explained Mr. Bilal Sowaissi Chief Operating Officer at Medcare Hospital Al Safa. \u201cWith aquablation, we can precisely map and treat the specific area using robotic accuracy, which significantly lowers risks and shortens recovery time, even in very complex cases. We have completed 16 such surgeries in only a couple of months. \u00a0We strive to offer the latest and best techniques to our patients to ensure the best outcomes with minimal to no side effects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This patient case is a common condition that comes with age, which can greatly affect a man\u2019s quality of life, leading to issues like weak urine flow, frequent trips to the restroom, and disrupted sleep. Unfortunately, many men hesitate to seek treatment due to the stigma or a lack of awareness.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since the introduction of the Aquablation procedure in December 2025, Medcare Hospital Al Safa has successfully performed 16 procedures, including complicated cases where multiple conditions were addressed in a single session such as in an instance where one patient had both, an enlarged prostate and multiple bladder stones. Doctors treated both conditions i.e. removing the stones with laser technology and addressing the prostate with Aquablation simultaneously. Patients have reported quicker recoveries, enhanced urinary function, and an overall better quality of life compared to traditional surgical methods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cutting-edge robotic water-jet therapy treats one of the region\u2019s most severe prostate enlargement cases, without open surgery The new robotic technology is a valuable addition to Medcare\u2019s expanding portfolio of Robotic &amp; AI technologies \u00a0 Dubai:\u00a0In a remarkable case that showcases the increasing importance of robotic surgery in the UAE, a 72-year-old resident of Dubai<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10124,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,115],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-9633","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"category-property"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9633"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9633\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10125,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9633\/revisions\/10125"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/10124"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evisionworlds.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
