Sural nerve grafting (SNG) in
patients who have undergone deliberate excision of one or both
neurovascular bundles (NVBs) during radical retropubic
prostatectomy (RRP), or after prostate surgery,
has generated intense interest, and has been statistically proven
in numerous studies.
Peripheral nerve injury
to your cavernous nerve (one or both) may occur at any
time during prostate cancer surgery. The injury might
be minor in nature, similar to a bruise, or it might be an excision
or cutting out of an entire segment of nerve in order to remove
cancerous cells that may have infiltrated the tissue around
the nerves causing after prostate surgery, impotence.
One of the most important considerations is how many times the doctor you have in mind has performed the operation you need. A new study suggests the answer may be literally a matter of life and death. Dr. Nath has performed over 2,500 operations for nerve injury.
Patients from many states and several
countries have undergone sural nerve grafting to repair
peripheral nerve injury for impotency and urinary continence
by Dr. Nath because of his experience with prostate
impotence.
