Urological Cancer Surgeries
Urological cancers, including cancers of the kidney, bladder, prostate, and testes, are complex conditions that require advanced surgical expertise and a comprehensive treatment approach. Dr. Radha Raman Mondal, Consultant Surgical Oncologist at NH Narayana Hospital, specializes in the surgical management of urological cancers, offering personalized treatment plans that aim to remove the cancer effectively while preserving function and quality of life.
Dr. Mondal is skilled in a range of surgical procedures for urological cancers, utilizing both traditional open surgeries and minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries. These advanced methods allow for precise tumor removal with less trauma to the body, reducing recovery times and minimizing scarring.
For kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma), Dr. Mondal performs partial or radical nephrectomies, depending on the tumor’s size and location.
The goal is to remove the cancer while preserving as much healthy kidney tissue as possible. In some cases, minimally invasive procedures are used to remove the tumor through small incisions, ensuring a quicker recovery and less post-operative pain.
For bladder cancer, Dr. Mondal offers transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT), a procedure that allows for the removal of early-stage tumors through the urethra. For more advanced cases, cystectomy (removal of the bladder) may be required, with reconstruction options such as neobladder formation to restore urinary function.
Dr. Mondal also specializes in prostate cancer surgeries, including radical prostatectomy, which involves the removal of the prostate gland. His use of robotic-assisted surgery in prostate cancer allows for highly precise tumor removal while preserving surrounding nerves, leading to improved outcomes in erectile function and urinary control.
For testicular cancer, Dr. Mondal offers orchiectomy, the surgical removal of the affected testicle, and works with medical oncologists to design a post-surgical treatment plan, including chemotherapy or radiation if necessary.
His focus on preserving organ function and quality of life while effectively treating the cancer sets Dr. Mondal apart. Dr. Mondal works closely with a multidisciplinary team, including radiation oncologists and medical oncologists, to create a tailored treatment plan that may involve surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.
With more than 9 years of experience and memberships in prominent oncology societies like the Indian Association of Surgical Oncology (IASO) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), Dr. Radha Raman Mondal provides cutting-edge, compassionate care to patients with urological cancers, helping them achieve the best possible outcomes.
