Radical Nephrectomy
What is Radical Nephrectomy?
Radical nephrectomy is a surgery to remove the entire kidney. In some cases, it may also include removing nearby tissues like the adrenal gland, lymph nodes, or surrounding fat if the cancer has spread.
When the tumour is enormous or cannot be properly eliminated by just removing a portion of the kidney, this operation is typically performed.
Your Guide to Radical Nephrectomy
-The kidney tumor is large
-The cancer has spread outside the kidney
-The tumor is in a location where partial removal isn’t possible
-The kidney is severely damaged by disease or injury
-Smaller cuts and less pain
-Less bleeding and lower risk of infection
-Shorter hospital stay
-Faster return to normal activities
-More accurate removal of the affected area
What is Robotic Radical Nephrectomy?
In a minimally invasive procedure known as a robotic radical nephrectomy, the kidney is removed by the surgeon using robotic tools.
Using tiny incisions, the surgeon can make exact motions by controlling the robot via a console.
Compared to open surgery, this method provides more visualisation and control during the procedure and typically results in a faster recovery.
Why Robotic Surgery?
Faster Recovery Time
Low Risk of Infection
Lesser Scars
Less Discomfort After Surgery
Shorter Hospital Stay
Speedier Return to Daily Life
