Urology cancers are among the most common cancers affecting men and women today. These cancers include malignancies of the kidneys, bladder, prostate, and other parts of the urinary tract. While various treatments are available — including radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy — surgery often plays a central role in managing and curing many urologic cancers.
At Nelson Hospital, Nagpur, our expert team of urologists and oncologists collaborate to provide personalized and comprehensive care. In this article, we dive into when surgery becomes necessary in urology cancer treatment, and what patients should know before making treatment decisions
Urologic cancers refer to cancers of the urinary system and the male reproductive organs. These include:
Each of these cancers behaves differently and requires a tailored treatment plan. At Nelson Hospital’s Urology Department, we assess several factors — including cancer stage, location, and patient health — before recommending surgery.
Surgery is not always the first treatment option. However, it becomes critical in specific cases where:
Kidney cancer, also known as renal cell carcinoma, often requires surgery if the tumor is confined to the kidney. A partial or radical nephrectomy (removal of part or all of the kidney) is the most effective treatment in early stages.
At Nelson Hospital Nagpur, our urologic surgeons use laparoscopic and robotic techniques to perform kidney surgeries with minimal pain and quicker recovery.
Doctor’s Insight:
“When imaging shows a solid kidney mass with no distant spread, we often recommend surgery to remove the tumor completely. This is typically curative if detected early.”
— Dr. Dr. Shruti Pandit Kriplani, Urologist, Nelson Hospital
Bladder cancer often begins in the inner lining of the bladder and can become invasive if not treated early. In superficial stages, Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT) is performed to remove the tumor.
However, radical cystectomy (removal of the entire bladder) becomes necessary in:
Nelson Hospital’s advanced surgical team offers both open and minimally invasive options for bladder cancer surgery.
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men. In early stages, it may be monitored (active surveillance), but surgery becomes essential when:
A radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland) is the gold standard. At Nelson Hospital, we offer nerve-sparing techniques that help preserve sexual function and urinary control after surgery.
Testicular cancer is often treated first with orchiectomy, the removal of the affected testicle. This is usually followed by chemotherapy or radiation depending on the stage.
Penile cancer, though rare, often requires partial or total penectomy depending on tumor spread. Surgical intervention in these cancers is often urgent and life-saving.
Nelson Hospital offers compassionate, private, and confidential care for patients with reproductive system cancers, including pre- and post-operative counseling.
Sometimes, urologic cancers cause acute complications that require emergency surgery, such as:
In such situations, immediate surgical intervention can prevent life-threatening complications and improve quality of life.
At Nelson Hospital Nagpur, we understand that cancer care goes beyond treatment. Our urology cancer treatment services offer:
Every cancer case at Nelson Hospital is discussed in tumor board meetings involving urologists, oncologists, radiologists, and surgeons. This ensures:
Patients are guided every step of the way — from diagnosis to surgery to rehabilitation.
Knowing when surgery is needed in urology cancer treatment can be life-changing. Surgery not only removes the tumor but also offers the best chance for a cancer-free future when done at the right time and by the right team.
