It was perfect
It was perfect, except that I was hoping to leave with the vaccination that the doctor couldn't prescribe, explaining that there was new legislation and also that I must be in an infectious period.
The consultation day and the time we spent together. The quality of the examinations and the explanations.
Of course, the vaccine is available in Europe, except in France.

Our Nephrectomy Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Nephrectomy, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Laparoscopic Nephrectomy

A minimally invasive procedure for kidney removal using small incisions and a camera-guided tool.

Pros: Minimally invasive with reduced blood loss and faster recovery. Lower risk of infection and complications with a 90% success rate.
Cons: Longer learning curve for surgeons compared to traditional open surgery. Limited access to complex renal masses.
Effectiveness: 95% success rate in kidney removal for cancer or donation.
Duration: 2-4 hours.
Recovery: 2-4 weeks.
Best for: Patients requiring kidney removal for cancer or donation, especially those preferring minimally invasive options.
Prices: Cost of Laparoscopic nephrectomy in Spain from $6,292

Nephrectomy with Da Vinci Robot

This procedure involves the robotic-assisted removal of a kidney using the Da Vinci surgical system for precision and minimally invasive operation.

Pros: Provides enhanced precision with 3D visualization and robotic arms, reducing blood loss by up to 50%. Shorter hospital stay compared to traditional laparoscopic nephrectomy. Quicker recovery time.
Cons: Requires access to advanced robotic technology, which may not be available in all hospitals. Longer setup time compared to traditional methods.
Effectiveness: Success rate of over 95% in complete kidney removal for cancer treatment.
Duration: 3-4 hours
Recovery: 2-4 weeks
Best for: Patients with renal tumors or kidney cancer, especially when precision is critical. Suitable for individuals seeking minimally invasive surgery.

Kidney-sparing surgery

Renal resection involves removing part of the kidney to treat conditions like tumors while preserving kidney function.

Pros: Preserves kidney function, reducing the risk of chronic kidney disease. Higher patient satisfaction with functional outcomes, retaining up to 80% of kidney function post-surgery.
Cons: More complex than kidney extraction with potential for longer surgical times. Increased risk of complications like bleeding or urine leakage.
Effectiveness: Success rates can reach up to 90% in preserving renal function and removing tumors.
Duration: 3-4 hours
Recovery: 2-6 weeks
Best for: Suitable for patients with small renal tumors (less than 4 cm) or bilateral kidney issues.
