When a cancer diagnosis requires surgical intervention, the priority is removing the disease completely while minimizing the physical impact on the patient. Laparoscopic Surgery For Urological Cancer represents the most advanced standard of care, offering precise results comparable to traditional open surgery but with dramatically faster recovery times.
At The Optimum Clinic, our expert urology surgeon utilizes minimally invasive techniques across a spectrum of urological cancers—including the kidney, bladder, and prostate—ensuring our patients in the Mohali area receive definitive treatment with maximum preservation of health and quality of life.
Kidney cancer treatment often requires the removal of the tumor, which can be achieved through highly advanced laparoscopic techniques:
Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy (Nephron-Sparing Surgery): During this surgical procedure, doctors precisely remove the cancerous tumor and a small portion of surrounding healthy tissue, leaving the majority of the kidney intact. This technique is favored when medically appropriate as it helps preserve long-term kidney function.
Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy: For larger or more aggressive tumors, the whole kidney is removed.
Both procedures are performed using minimally invasive techniques, typically involving several small incisions rather than a single large cut. A key benefit is that following a successful laparoscopic procedure, patients can resume their normal activities in less than half the time it takes to completely recover from an open surgery.
Patients suffering from advanced or recurrent bladder cancer may need to have either a part of or their entire bladder removed through procedures known as cystectomies:
Partial Cystectomy: This is performed when cancer has spread to just a portion of the bladder wall, allowing the surgeon to remove only the diseased segment while preserving bladder function.
Radical Cystectomy: This procedure is needed when the cancer has invaded the entire bladder. In this complex Laparoscopic Surgery for Bladder Cancer, the entire bladder as well as nearby lymph nodes and organs are removed.
Following a radical cystectomy, our surgeon creates a new structure—a ‘neobladder’—that enables patients to store urine inside the body, or an external pouch is created. These complex cystectomies are now frequently performed using a traditional or robotic laparoscope, as the recovery is swift and smooth, greatly aiding the patient’s overall outcome and quality of life.
Treatment for localized prostate cancer often involves radical prostate surgery. We utilize cutting-edge technology to perform this delicate procedure:
Laparoscopic Surgery for Prostate Cancer is performed using advanced robotic systems, such as the innovative da Vinci system. This provides the surgeon with easy access to the prostate through a few minor incisions, offering significant advantages over open surgery:
Enhanced Precision and Magnification: The da Vinci system provides surgeons with considerably enhanced magnification (10x), making it easier to view the surgical field in high definition 3D.
Nerve Sparing: Small, wristed surgical instruments enable tissue manipulation with great precision, allowing the surgeon to remove the prostate gland while meticulously avoiding critical nerves that pass through the prostate. This, in turn, tremendously reduces the complications associated with urinary incompetence and impotence.
Our expertise ensures that whether you require Laparoscopic Surgery For Kidney Cancer, bladder, or prostate treatment, you benefit from the highest standards of minimally invasive oncology care available.
