Urological Cancers – Overview
Urological cancers affect the kidneys, bladder, prostate, testes, and ureter. Dr. Pragnesh Desai offers expert surgical management using robotic and laparoscopic techniques for the best oncological and functional outcomes.
Types of Urological Cancers Treated
Kidney Cancer (RCC)
Treated with robotic or laparoscopic partial/radical nephrectomy. Early detection leads to excellent survival rates.
Bladder Cancer
TURBT for superficial tumours; robotic cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
Prostate Cancer
Nerve-sparing robotic prostatectomy, radiation, or active surveillance depending on risk group.
Testicular Cancer
Radical orchiectomy followed by surveillance, chemotherapy, or RPLND based on staging.
Warning Signs of Urological Cancer
Treatment Approach
Diagnosis & Staging
CT scan, MRI, biopsy, and tumour markers to accurately stage the cancer.
Multidisciplinary Review
Dr. Desai coordinates with oncologists and radiologists for comprehensive cancer care.
Surgical Treatment
Robotic or laparoscopic surgery for precise tumour removal with organ preservation when possible.
Post-treatment Follow-up
Regular imaging, PSA tests, and surveillance to monitor for recurrence.
