Top Procedures & Treatments for Nephrology in Mumbai

  • Permcath Insertion
  • ACF Creation
  • Dialysis
Procedures and Treatments
Permcath Insertion

Permcath insertion is a vital procedure for patients requiring long-term dialysis access. This involves placing a catheter in a large vein, usually in the neck, and is utilized to facilitate hemodialysis sessions. Our expert nephrologists employ minimally invasive techniques, ensuring patient comfort and reducing recovery time. This procedure ensures continuous, effective dialysis, improving the quality of life for those with chronic kidney disease. Patients are closely monitored for potential complications, with expert care provided to manage any arising issues promptly, ensuring uninterrupted dialysis treatment. 

Procedures and Treatments
ACF Creation

Arteriovenous fistula (ACF) creation is a critical procedure for ensuring efficient dialysis treatment. It involves surgically connecting an artery and a vein in the arm, expanding access for dialysis and enhancing blood flow. Our surgeons employ advanced surgical techniques to create ACFs that maximize durability and function. Properly formed fistulas decrease the risk of complications and extend the lifespan of dialysis access points, providing stable and efficient treatment. Post-operative care includes monitoring and advising patients on exercises to mature the fistula, promoting optimal dialysis outcomes. 

Procedures and Treatments
Dialysis

Dialysis is a life-sustaining treatment for patients with kidney failure. It involves removing waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys cannot perform these functions. Our department offers both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, tailoring the approach to individual patient needs. Our state-of-the-art facilities and expert care teams ensure each dialysis session is as comfortable and efficient as possible. With regular dialysis, patients maintain better health, reduced symptoms, and enhanced quality of life. Our comprehensive care includes nutritional support and ongoing monitoring to optimize treatment effectiveness. 

Types of Diseases Treated under Nephrology

  • Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney
  • Nephrotic Syndrome in Adults
  • Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
  • Renal Artery Stenosis
Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney

A condition where cysts replace normal kidney tissue, impairing function. We provide comprehensive diagnostic and management plans to address this congenital disorder.

Our approach includes regular monitoring, and when necessary, surgical interventions to manage symptoms and prevent complications. Support includes genetic counseling and family planning advice to address hereditary concerns and optimize patient health outcomes. 

Common Disease Condition sample image
Nephrotic Syndrome in Adults

Nephrotic syndrome leads to large protein loss in urine, causing swelling and risk of infection. Our tailored therapies focus on symptom management and protection of kidney function.

Patients receive personalized treatment plans which may include medication to control symptoms, dietary modifications to manage protein levels, and support to prevent further kidney damage. Our goal is to reduce relapse rates and maintain long-term renal function. 

Common Disease Condition sample image
Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

PKD is a genetic disorder characterized by numerous fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. We employ a multi-faceted approach to manage disease progression and complications. 

This includes genetic testing, periodic monitoring of kidney size and function, and intervention strategies to manage pain and hypertension. Our comprehensive care ensures patients can manage their condition effectively, preserving kidney function as long as possible. 

Common Disease Condition sample image
Renal Artery Stenosis

Renal artery stenosis is the narrowing of arteries that supply the kidneys, often leading to hypertension. We offer advanced diagnostic and treatment options to restore blood flow.

Treatment may involve medication to control blood pressure, angioplasty, or surgical procedures to correct arterial narrowing. Our multi-disciplinary team works closely to provide optimal care, reducing the risk of renal failure.
