Surgery for cancers of the kidney, bladder, prostate, testis and adrenal gland, often done robotically.
Pending doctor checkDepending on the cancer, the surgeon removes the tumour with part of the kidney (keeping the rest working) or the whole kidney, the prostate, or the bladder. When the bladder is removed, a new way to pass urine is made, sometimes a new bladder from bowel. Robotic surgery is used where it suits, and the surgeon aims to keep bladder control and sexual function wherever possible.

Every patient gets their own estimate, in writing, from the hospital. These are the things that move it.
Room types, equipment and running costs differ from one hospital to the next.
A surgeon's fee follows their experience and how complex the operation is.
Keyhole or robotic surgery, and the make of any implant, can change the price.
Other conditions, earlier treatment and the tests you need before treatment all count.
Days in hospital, any time in intensive care and the weeks you spend recovering in India.
Physiotherapy, medicines to take home and follow-up visits are added only if your doctor asks for them.
The estimate is not final until the doctor has examined you in India. If anything changes, we explain it before you agree to it.
