The time to be allowed for the molecules to attain stability after the microwave treatment is called standing time.

Q: What is the recommended time period for removal of the catheter after a RRP?

URF - The Site for Prostate Cancer Information
Different surgeons have different recommended times. In my practice, if the bladder and urethra come together nicely, without any tension, the catheter can be removed after one full week. If some tension is pulling the bladder down to the urethral stump, the catheter remains in place for 10 days. If it is difficult to approximate the bladder neck to the urethra, the catheter must remain for two weeks or more.
