Laparoscopy

Advanced laparoscopic procedures.

RTR Urology is the first practice in the area doing state-of-the-art laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopy is an operative technique which minimizes the incision(s) necessary by operating through small openings (ports). The advantages of laparoscopy include a much shortened post-operative period, less post-operative pain, and overall quicker recovery. We use this advanced technique to effectively deal with diseased kidneys. Ask one of our doctors if a laparoscopic procedure is right for your problem.

 

“I had the CAT scan because my gallbladder was acting up. We never expected to see the tumor on my kidney. My uncle had his kidney removed, and he still talks about the size of his scar. I was lucky to find the doctors at RTR Urology. They used laparoscopy to remove my kidney. I was home quickly and back to work in a few weeks. Most importantly, there is no evidence of any remaining cancer.”
