Nephrectomy is a surgical procedure to remove one or both kidneys, performed for conditions such as kidney cancer, severe kidney damage, or non-functioning kidneys. Depending on the condition, the surgery can be partial (removing part of the kidney) or radical (removing the entire kidney) and performed via open or minimally invasive laparoscopic/robotic techniques.
India offers advanced urology and robotic surgery services, experienced surgeons, and comprehensive post-operative care.

Surgical Procedure
Partial Nephrectomy: Only the diseased portion of the kidney is removed
Radical Nephrectomy: Entire kidney, sometimes along with adrenal gland or surrounding tissue
Approaches: Laparoscopic, robotic, or open surgery
Surgery duration: 2–4 hours depending on approach and complexity
Post-operative Care
Hospital stay: 3–7 days depending on procedure
Pain management, wound care, and monitoring kidney function
Gradual return to normal activities
Follow-up imaging and renal function monitoring

Minimally invasive techniques reduce recovery time and scarring
Improves quality of life and prevents complications like infection or hypertension
Robotic-assisted surgery increases precision and reduces blood loss
Partial nephrectomy preserves healthy kidney tissue
