We recommend resting and limiting physical exertion during the first 4 weeks after the surgery and avoiding physical activity for 14 days after the surgery.
If the histopathological examination of the surgical margin confirms that the tumour has been completely removed, there are no indications for further oncological treatment (chemo- or radiotherapy).
Two weeks before the procedure you should have the following blood tests done: full blood count, electrolyte test, coagulation test, blood type, glucose, creatinine, Hbs antigen, ANTI-HCV.
The procedure is performed as an open surgery or, in selected cases, as a laparoscopic surgery.
The open NSS procedure is performed under general anaesthesia. The decision is taken by an anaesthetist before the procedure.
During the procedure the tumour is removed (enucleated) or resected with a surgical margin (wedge resection).
The skin incision is oblique and is located either at the side or along the costal arch, with the patient lying on the back. The material collected during the procedure (tumour tissue) is sent for histopathology testing.
This is the procedure when the tumour is removed while sparing the kidney.
