What is Partial Nephrectomy?
Partial nephrectomy is a kidney-sparing surgery in which only the tumor or diseased portion of the kidney is removed, while the healthy part of the kidney is preserved. This procedure is ideal for patients with early-stage kidney cancer or small tumors, aiming to maintain normal kidney function and overall health.
Also known as nephron-sparing surgery, it is a preferred option when feasible because it reduces the risk of chronic kidney disease compared to removing the entire kidney. Patients seeking partial nephrectomy cancer treatment in Ahmedabad benefit from advanced techniques such as robotic-assisted surgery, which allows precise tumor removal, minimal blood loss, and faster recovery.
Types of Partial Nephrectomy Cancer Surgery
Open Partial Nephrectomy
The surgeon removes the tumor through a traditional open incision in the abdomen or side. It allows direct access to the kidney and is used for larger or complex tumors.
Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy
A minimally invasive surgery using small incisions and a camera to guide tumor removal. It reduces pain, scarring, and recovery time compared to open surgery.
Robotic-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy
Robotic technology provides enhanced precision, flexibility, and visualization for removing kidney tumors. This approach minimizes blood loss and speeds up recovery while preserving kidney function.

Your Guide to Partial Nephrectomy
Partial nephrectomy usually is done in cases of kidney cancer or focal kidney tumours; thus, the previous history of kidney malignancy is the primary risk factor. Other causes are smoking, obesity, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and family history of cancer in the kidney, thus predisposing an individual to have tumours.
There is also the contribution of age and sex since kidney cancer is more prevalent in the elderly and men. Knowing the tumours at an early age and having frequent check-ups will help in detecting the tumours before they grow to a large size; hence, patients will be good subjects for kidney-sparing surgery.
Sometimes the tumours in the kidneys which demand partial nephrectomy do not produce any symptoms; hence, they are difficult to detect at the early stages. As the tumour advances, the patients might develop the symptoms of blood in the urine, constant pain at the flank or back, tiredness, or any weight loss that cannot be explained.
The other symptoms may be fever, loss of appetite or the swelling of the legs. The identifying of these symptoms at the initial stages and timely imaging or the diagnostic tests will enable the proper intervention to be done and maintain the kidney functions.
Partial nephrectomy is the procedure of removing the tumour only but sparing the normal part of the kidney, either using open, laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgeries. This is to reduce the risk of chronic kidney disease, as it is proven to treat localised cancer.
In severe or high-risk situations, surgery can be used with targeted therapy, immunotherapy or postoperative follow-up to decrease the risk of recurrence. Having proper follow-ups, lifestyle changes and rehabilitating programmes assists patients in keeping their kidneys functioning and generally improving their living conditions.

Commonly Asked Questions
Is a partial nephrectomy major surgery?
Yes, partial nephrectomy is considered a major surgery because it involves removing part of the kidney while preserving healthy tissue. Minimally invasive and robotic techniques make it safer and reduce recovery time. Careful surgical planning ensures minimal complications.
Can cancer return after partial nephrectomy?
There is a risk that cancer can recur after partial nephrectomy, particularly if any cancer cells remain or new tumors develop. Regular follow-ups, imaging, and lab tests help detect recurrence early. Early intervention improves long-term outcomes.
How to know cancer stage from biopsy report?
The biopsy report shows the type, grade, and aggressiveness of the tumor. Doctors combine this with imaging results to determine the exact stage of cancer. Staging guides treatment and prognosis.
How long is recovery from a nephrectomy?
Recovery usually takes 4–6 weeks for minimally invasive surgery and up to 8 weeks for open surgery. Patients gradually resume normal activities while following post-operative care instructions. Close monitoring ensures optimal healing and kidney function.
