Surgical Approach for Uro-Oncological Cancers

Uro-oncological surgeries are most commonly performed in the form of Minimally Invasive Surgery/ Keyhole surgery:

  1. Robotic-assisted Surgery: Surgical procedures are performed with the assistance of the advanced Surgical Robotic system (da Vinci X), offering enhanced precision, dexterity, and faster recovery with the least scar formation.

  2. Laparoscopic Surgery: It is a minimally invasive surgery performed through small incisions using a camera and specialized instruments.

  3. Endoscopic Surgery: Another minimally invasive procedure, it is performed using an advanced endoscope and an energy source/Laser to visualize and treat tumours within the urinary tract.
