Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy

Overview: Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy is the removal of an entire kidney, typically performed to treat kidney cancer or other severe kidney conditions. This procedure is often recommended when the kidney is extensively damaged or cancerous.

Procedure: Dr. Anup Gulati utilizes laparoscopic techniques to perform radical nephrectomy, making small incisions through which a camera and surgical tools are inserted. The kidney is carefully detached and removed, minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. This approach offers a safer and less invasive alternative to open surgery, with a quicker recovery period.

Benefits:

• Precision: High-definition cameras allow for accurate removal of the kidney.
• Less pain: Smaller incisions result in less post-operative discomfort.
• Quicker recovery: Patients experience shorter hospital stays and faster healing.
