Diagnostics at the Clinic
Patients undergo thorough diagnostic testing. This helps to plan the most suitable surgery. Available diagnostics include:
- CT scan of the urinary system for detailed imaging.
- Tumor pathology analysis to determine the cancer type.
Surgical Treatment Options
The clinic offers three main surgical procedures for kidney cancer:
- Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy preserves healthy kidney tissue. It removes only the tumor. Hospital stay is typically 2-3 days. The package cost is around $12,500 and includes 3 nights of hospital stay, meals, and nursing care.
- Robotic partial nephrectomy (da Vinci) uses a robotic system for enhanced precision. This is ideal for complex tumor locations. A 2-3 day hospital stay is common. This package costs around $17,350 and covers the hospital stay, meals, and airport transfers.
- Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy involves removing the entire kidney. This is an option when preservation is not possible. Hospitalization is around 2 days. The package is typically priced around $15,500.
