kidney cysts surgery

Laparoscopic Renal Cyst Decortication.Simple cysts are the most common type of kidney cyst.Usually do not cause symptoms.Occasionally, however, they become large and can cause pain or infection.The cause of simple kidney cysts is not fully understood, but they do not appear to be inherited.Treatment approaches include needle aspiration of the cysts, laparoscopic cyst decortication and open surgical removal.Laparoscopic Kidney Cyst Ablation is a minimally invasive surgical technique, which provides patients with less discomfort and equivalent results when compared to the traditional open surgery.
Both laparoscopic decortication and open surgery offer long-term cure rates of at least 95%. They also are effective methods for determining whether suspicious kidney cysts are benign.Laparoscopic Kidney Cyst Ablation provides a safe and effective way to remove symptomatic kidney cysts for patients that experience flank pain, abdominal pain or have a obstructed kidney due to kidney cysts while preserving the remainder of the kidney.
The laparoscopic procedure using 3-4 tiny incisions as opposed to the 1 large flank incision typical of open surgery.A telescope and small instruments are inserted into the abdomen through these keyhole incisions, which allow the surgeon to completely dissect free and excise the relevant kidney cyst(s) without having to place his hands into the abdomen.A laparoscopic camera inserted through the incisions gives the surgeon a magnified view of the kidney, facilitating careful dissection of the cyst away from surrounding structures.

Do not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before the surgery and drink one bottle of Magnesium Citrate (can be purchased at your local pharmacy) the evening before your surgery.iet Patients resume normal eating as they recover in the first day after surgery or soon thereafter. Postoperative pain Pain is managed immediately with an intravenous patient controlled analgesia pump, which is removed and replaced by pills the day after surgery.
