Overview
What is Urological Cancer?
Urological cancers are malignancies that develop in the organs of the urinary system and male reproductive system. These include cancers of the kidney, bladder, prostate, testis, and urinary tract. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are critical to achieving the best outcomes.
Dr. Ravi Nagar specializes in the surgical management of all major urological cancers using the latest minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques.
⚠
Early Detection Saves LivesMost urological cancers, when caught in early stages, have a very high survival rate. Regular screenings and early consultation with a specialist can be life-saving.
Types We Treat
Urological Cancers We Manage
Kidney Cancer
Renal cell carcinoma — most common kidney tumour, often detected incidentally on imaging.
Prostate Cancer
Most common cancer in men over 50. Highly treatable when detected early through PSA screening.
Bladder Cancer
Blood in urine is the most common symptom. Requires prompt cystoscopy for early diagnosis.
Warning Signs
Symptoms Not to Ignore
Blood in urine (haematuria) — painless or painful
Unexplained weight loss or fatigue
Persistent back or flank pain
Difficulty urinating or weak urine stream
Lump or swelling in the testicle or kidney area
Frequent urination, especially at night
Diagnosis
How We Diagnose
01
Urine & Blood TestsPSA test for prostate cancer, urine cytology for bladder cancer — simple, non-invasive first-line screening.
02
Ultrasound & CT ScanHigh-resolution imaging to identify tumour size, location, and spread to nearby organs or lymph nodes.
03
CystoscopyDirect visual inspection of the bladder using a thin camera — gold standard for bladder cancer detection.
04
BiopsyTissue sampling to confirm malignancy and determine cancer grade for accurate treatment planning.
Treatment
Our Treatment Approach
Kidney
Laparoscopic NephrectomyMinimally invasive removal of the kidney or tumour through small keyhole incisions — faster recovery.
Prostate
Radical ProstatectomySurgical removal of the prostate gland for localized prostate cancer with nerve-sparing techniques.
Bladder
TURBTTransurethral resection of bladder tumour — minimally invasive procedure for early bladder cancers.
Bladder
Radical CystectomyComplete bladder removal for invasive bladder cancer with urinary diversion reconstruction.
