What is Uro-Oncology?

Uro-oncology, also known as genitourinary oncology, is a specialized branch of oncology that focuses on cancers of the urinary tract and male reproductive system. These include:

  • Kidney Cancer
  • Bladder Cancer
  • Prostate Cancer
  • Testicular Cancer
  • Penile Cancer
  • Adrenal Tumors

Uro-oncologists are urologists with advanced training in oncology, making them the ideal specialists for managing both the cancer itself and preserving urinary and sexual function.

What Makes Genitourinary Cancers Unique?

In India, genitourinary cancers are among the most commonly diagnosed. They often progress silently, which is why regular screening and early detection are critical. At AINU, we believe in educating patients and enabling early intervention to improve outcomes significantly.

We Specialize In

Kidney Cancer

Renal Cell Carcinoma
Overview

Kidney cancer typically begins in the cells of the kidney and often shows no early symptoms. It is most commonly found incidentally during scans done for other reasons.

Causes
  • Smoking
  • Obesity
  • High blood pressure
  • Family history of kidney cancer
  • Long-term dialysis
Symptoms
  • Blood in the urine (haematuria)
  • Lower back pain on one side
  • A mass or lump in the abdomen
  • Unexplained weight loss
Diagnosis
  • CT Scan / MRI
  • Ultrasound
  • Biopsy (in selected cases)

We focus on organ-preserving surgeries like:

  • Partial nephrectomy (removal of tumor while preserving kidney function)
  • Laparoscopic or robotic nephrectomy
  • Ablative therapies for small tumors
  • Targeted therapy or immunotherapy in advanced cases

Bladder cancer

Urothelial Carcinoma
Overview

Bladder cancer begins in the lining of the bladder. It’s one of the most common cancers, particularly in older adults. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.

Causes
  • Smoking (major risk factor)
  • Exposure to chemicals (industrial dyes, rubber)
  • Chronic bladder inflammation
  • Family history
  • Previous cancer treatment
Symptoms
  • Blood in urine (often painless)
  • Frequent urination
  • Painful urination
  • Back pain
  • Pelvic pain
Diagnosis
  • Cystoscopy
  • Urine cytology
  • CT urography
  • Biopsy during cystoscopy

Comprehensive treatment options include:

  • Transurethral resection (TURBT)
  • Intravesical therapy (BCG treatment)
  • Radical cystectomy with urinary diversion
  • Immunotherapy and chemotherapy

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about urological care, treatments, and our services

Uro-oncology is a subspecialty of urology that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cancers affecting the urinary system and male reproductive organs, including bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and prostate cancer.

Robotic surgery offers several advantages, including minimally invasive techniques that result in less pain, reduced blood loss, shorter recovery times, and smaller scars compared to traditional open surgery.

During robotic surgery, the surgeon uses a robotic system that allows for precise movements through small incisions. The surgeon controls the robot from a console, enhancing dexterity and visualization during the procedure.

Robotic surgery can be used to treat various urological cancers, including prostate cancer (robotic prostatectomy), kidney cancer (robotic nephrectomy), and bladder cancer (robotic cystectomy).

Recovery after robotic surgery typically involves a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to normal activities compared to traditional surgery. Your healthcare team will provide specific post-operative care instructions and monitor your progress.
