Prostatectomy (from the Greek προστάτης prostátēs, 'prostate' and ἐκτομή ektomē, 'excision') is the surgical removal of all or part of the prostate gland. This operation is done for benign conditions that cause urinary retention as well as for prostate cancer and for other cancers of the pelvis.
The analysis highlights History, Applications and Art as prominent areas in the source structure around Prostatectomy.
Source areas are shown by the number of related topics found in each part of the analysis. Use smaller areas too: they can reveal specialized angles and content gaps.
Smaller areas are not necessarily less important. They contain fewer connections in this analysis and can be useful for finding specialized angles or coverage gaps.
