Minimally Invasive. Precise. Faster Healing.
Laparoscopic Nephrectomy is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to remove a kidney that is diseased, damaged, or affected by cancer. This advanced procedure is performed through small keyhole incisions using a laparoscope — a thin, wand-like camera that provides magnified visualization inside the abdomen.
Compared to traditional open surgery, laparoscopic nephrectomy results in less pain, reduced blood loss, smaller scars, and quicker recovery. It allows patients to return to daily activities sooner with excellent cosmetic and functional outcomes. This technique is suitable for both radical nephrectomy (entire kidney removal) and simple nephrectomy for benign kidney diseases.
Precision Reconstruction. Long-lasting Relief.
Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty is a minimally invasive reconstructive surgery performed to correct a narrowing (stricture) or blockage where the ureter joins the kidney — known as the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction. This condition can cause pain, infection, and impaired kidney drainage.
Using tiny incisions and specialized instruments, the surgeon carefully removes the obstructed portion and reattaches the ureter to the kidney for normal urine flow. This technique ensures high success rates, less pain, minimal scarring, and faster recovery compared to open surgery.
Laparoscopic pyeloplasty offers excellent long-term outcomes and restores proper kidney function with minimal discomfort for the patient.
Organ Preservation. Precision. Better Recovery.
Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy (also called kidney-sparing surgery) involves removing only the diseased or cancerous part of the kidney while preserving healthy tissue. This procedure is ideal for patients with small kidney tumors or localized kidney cancers.
By using laparoscopic instruments and high-definition cameras, Dr. Saket Sathe ensures precise tumor removal with minimal damage to surrounding structures. This approach helps maintain optimal kidney function and reduces the risk of long-term renal complications.
Patients benefit from smaller incisions, less blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery, while achieving excellent cancer control and organ preservation.
At Dr. Sathe’s Uro-Stone Urology Clinic, laparoscopic surgeries are performed with precision, care, and advanced technology — ensuring safe, minimally invasive, and effective treatment for a wide range of kidney and ureteral conditions.
