What is a Nephrectomy?

A nephrectomy is a surgical procedure to remove kidney tissue. It can be of two main types:

  • Partial Nephrectomy: Only the diseased or damaged part of the kidney is removed, preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.

  • Radical or Complete Nephrectomy: The entire kidney is removed, often with surrounding structures like the adrenal gland or lymph nodes if cancer is present.
