Additional information
Robotic Radical Nephrectomy
Robotic radical nephrectomy is an advanced minimally invasive surgical procedure involving the complete removal of the affected kidney using robotic surgical technology. The robotic platform provides enhanced precision, improved three-dimensional visualization, and greater surgical control, allowing surgeons to perform complex procedures with high accuracy.
This procedure is most commonly performed for kidney tumors, renal cancer, or other severe kidney diseases requiring complete removal of the kidney. The robotic approach may offer benefits such as smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
The operation is performed with the assistance of one surgical assistant and includes an average inpatient hospital stay of 4 days, depending on the patient’s postoperative recovery and overall clinical condition.
INCLUDED SERVICES
The treatment package generally includes:
• Robotic radical nephrectomy surgery
• Assistance of one surgical assistant during the operation
• Pre-operative anesthesiology evaluation and routine anesthesia tests
• Operating room services and surgical team
• All procedure-related surgical materials and medications
• Daily physician visits during hospitalization
• 4 days inpatient stay in a standard hospital room
• Accommodation for one accompanying person
• Standard pathological examination of the surgical specimen
IMPORTANT INFORMATION / DISCLAIMER
The length of hospital stay may vary depending on the patient’s postoperative recovery and medical condition.
The total cost may vary depending on medication dosage, additional medical requirements, and the clinical course during hospitalization.
If additional investigations, specialist consultations, extended pathology examinations, intensive care services, or specialized diagnostic procedures are required, these services will incur additional charges.
The estimate is valid only for the specified treatment. If the treatment plan changes following the physician’s evaluation or intraoperatively, the final cost will be updated accordingly.
