Genitourinary cancer surgery. Personalised care for complex decisions.
Assessment and treatment planning for cancers affecting the urinary system and male reproductive organs. The right approach depends on the organ involved, the cancer's type and stage, overall health and the clinical findings in each individual case.

Individualised treatment planning.
Understanding genitourinary cancers.
The genitourinary system includes the kidneys, urinary tract and bladder, as well as organs of the male reproductive system. Cancers in these areas can differ in their behaviour and treatment needs. Diagnosis, staging and an understanding of how the disease affects the individual help guide decisions.
Dr. Harish Kumar H’s curriculum vitae lists genitourinary surgery using laparoscopic and robotic approaches among his areas of surgical experience. Whether an operation is suitable, and which treatment pathway is appropriate, depends on the cancer type, stage, clinical findings and specialist review.
Care across the genitourinary system.
Treatment options vary according to the site and stage of the cancer, test results, kidney and urinary function, and overall health. Each case needs an individual assessment and an agreed treatment plan with the relevant specialists.
Kidney Cancer
Assessment of kidney tumours and discussion of suitable management options based on the diagnosis and extent of disease.
Bladder Cancer
Review of bladder cancer findings to understand the stage and identify an appropriate treatment pathway.
Upper Urinary Tract Cancer
Assessment of cancers affecting parts of the urinary tract above the bladder, guided by imaging and pathology.
Prostate Cancer
Review of diagnostic findings and coordination of care planning with the appropriate specialist team.
Testicular Cancer
Evaluation of testicular cancer findings and discussion of treatment steps based on the confirmed diagnosis and stage.
Recurrent or Complex Disease
Review of persistent, recurrent or complex genitourinary cancers to clarify the available options and next steps.
A considered plan for each diagnosis.
Surgery is one part of cancer care and may not be the first or only option for every patient. Planning takes account of the confirmed diagnosis, disease extent, expected benefits and risks, and the advice of the relevant clinical team.
Diagnosis and Staging
Imaging, pathology reports and other relevant test results help establish the nature and extent of the cancer before treatment options are discussed.
Minimally Invasive Approaches
Where clinically appropriate, laparoscopic or robotic techniques may be considered. The choice of procedure depends on the cancer, anatomy and individual clinical needs.
Multidisciplinary Review
Coordination with relevant urology, medical oncology, radiation oncology, radiology and pathology specialists can help guide a suitable and personalised care plan.
