Surgery

 Laparoscopic kidney surgery only requires several small incisions. Through these incisions, a surgeon uses a tiny camera and specialized surgical instruments to conduct the operation and remove the kidney. The surgery takes approximately two to two and a half hours, and the hospital stay is usually just overnight, even for large tumors.
