Prostate problems are very
common and become more common with increasing
age.
Symptoms should be investigated
promptly as there is considerable overlap
of symptoms of benign prostatic enlargement
and prostate cancer.

The Prostate
Clinic, treatment and complete care for
all the diseases and conditions which affect the
prostate, urinary and reproductive system.
Mr Eden works as a Consultant Urological
Surgeon in Surrey, Hampshire & London specializing
in Prostate Surgery.
Screening for prostate cancer is especially important
for men with a family history as their risk is 2-3x
greater. The slow growth of most prostate cancers
provides a large window for early detection and cure with preservation of urinary
& sexual function. Recently-published
evidence from the European Randomised Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer has demonstrated a 20% reduction in prostate
cancer-related deaths over 9 years in patients screened with
the PSA blood test. Use of the latest technology,
including deCODE ProCa and PCA3 tests, allows assessment
of future risk and recommendation for prostate biopsy, respectively, to be made on a more
scientific basis.
Having pioneered nerve-sparing laparoscopic radical
prostatectomy for prostate cancer in the UK in 2000,
Christopher Eden has one of the largest combined personal
experiences of pure and robot-assisted laparoscopic
radical prostatectomy worldwide with over 1,500
cases achieving world-class results with published
potency rates of up to 94%, continence rates of
up to 98% and cancer cure rates of up to 96% (Eden
et al., British Journal of Urology International
2009; 103: 1224-1230).
