Newly diagnosed with a difficult decision to make
A partial
nephrectomy
-the most risky. 2.Remove the whole kidney a simpler operation but then I would only have one. 3.Continue to monitor untill it reaches a stage where the kidney must be removed,it is close to that size now. But if I wait my health and my age may be against me by then.

Just told I need a partial Nephrectomy
I saw a specialist that has told me that I will need a partial
Nephrectomy
. This is major surgery, and I am really worried about it. The surgeon does not seem to be concerned about my APS, but I know the risks associated with surgery and blood clots.

Radical or partial nephrectomy with existing chronic kidney disease
My anxiety is related to whether a
nephrectomy
will have a big detrimental effect on my remaining kidney function. Does anyone have experience of similar situation?

Awaiting nephrectomy
I am currently awaiting a full left
nephrectomy
(date is 15th Dec) for a large renal tumour. The last few weeks have been a bit of a blur with hospital appointments as this was only found as an incidental finding on a CT/Colonoscopy for anaemia andt things have moved very quickly.

Bosniak 2F - Family History of Nephrectomy and PA
Hello, I am struggling to find information specific to the development of Cycsts in Kidneys, I am finding that the B12 does affect the function, but I am looking for examples of possible links. I currently have an 8cm Bosniak 2F on my left Kidney. I have a lot of symptoms, and issues all related

Partial right nephrectomy tomorrow for 2cm tumour. Also a simple cyst in the same kidney.
Hi guys I’m having a partial
nephrectomy
tomorrow to remove a 2cm tumour found in my right kidney. Only found while I was having gallbladder investigations. Anyone here has this done that can tell me what to expect?? I’m getting scared now. Age 50.

Essential Thrombocytosis and having knee surgery
I have no cardio issues, no diabetes, normal weight but have had a
nephrectomy
about 3.5 years ago (renal cell carcinoma- no lymph involvement) and prostate cancer- prostectomy 3 years ago. Unlucky, but grateful to be active and enjoying life with chronic knee pain and swelling.

Kidney Tumour Update
As soon as he said that, my mind was made up and I've decided ho have a partial
nephrectomy
to take the tumour and part of the kidney away. Had I not already have been living with ET and the newly discovered TET2 mutation, I may have thought twice about it.

Possible adrenal gland removal
I am having Robotic Laparoscopic
Nephrectomy
on Monday. A mass was found on my left kidney and they will be removing the entire kidney. It’s been mentioned that surrounding tissues will also be removed and it leaves me concerned about the adrenal gland.

Four Year Transdermal Estradiol Update
A
nephrectomy
was performed at Baylor and five days later the path report came back as just a benign cyst. Go figure!! Several sacral Lymph nodes were removed robotically in 2017 at UCI when my PSA climbed to 1.3. The 'third' worthless surgery!

Right
nephrectomy
noted. The abdominal aorta is normal in calibre. No free fluid demonstrated in upper abdomen. I received an email message from my doctor which just said : Your ultrasound shows fat deposits in the liver - "fatty liver".

Shock kidney function result, any related experiences?
After improving from eGFR 36 (post-
nephrectomy
) to 76 ml/m as creatinine fell from 131 to 72 umol/L, her creatinine is almost back to where it started (129) with eGFR 46. Though technically low/moderate CKD (just), its concerning.

People of HU: Meet Hazel - Overcoming My Fear to Survive Kidney Cancer
The first surgery date was postponed as I had recently had a cold and the anesthetist did not want to go ahead with it, so a month later on December 29, 2014, I had a right radical
nephrectomy
