Urologic oncology treats cancers of the kidney, bladder, prostate, testis and penis. Blood in the urine, a lump in the flank or testis, a raised PSA, or persistent urinary symptoms should never be ignored, because early diagnosis greatly widens treatment options.

Diagnosis combines examination, blood tests, imaging, endoscopy and biopsy, and treatment is planned around the type, stage and the patient's general health. Surgery may be combined with radiation or medical oncology as part of a coordinated plan with Apex's oncology department. Patients seeking urological surgery in Mumbai for a tumour are guided through each option before a plan is made. Risks vary by operation and include bleeding, infection, effects on urinary and sexual function and the possibility of further treatment.

Apex provides the following urologic oncology services:

• Prostate Cancer Detection: Apex performs ultrasound-guided and MRI-targeted prostate biopsy for men with raised PSA.
• Bladder Tumour Management: Apex performs endoscopic evaluation and resection of bladder tumours.
• Kidney and Testis Tumour Surgery: Apex performs surgery for kidney and testicular growths.
