Suprapubic Prostatectomy:

Complete or partial surgical removal of the prostate. Three primary approaches are commonly employed: suprapubic – removal through an incision above the pubis and through the urinary bladder; retropubic – as for suprapubic but without entering the urinary bladder; and transurethral (TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF PROSTATE).
