What can I expect after robot assisted partial or radical nephrectomy?

Most people stay one night in the hospital and are discharged the next day.

The first return visit is in the office two weeks after surgery to have the incisions examined and to review the final pathology.

The final pathology determines frequency of further follow up visits. Strenuous activity should be avoided for two weeks.
