Urological Services > Tumours of the kidney, prostate, bladder and testes
Tumours can develop in different parts of the urinary and male reproductive systems, including the kidneys, prostate, bladder, and testes. A tumour is an abnormal growth of cells that may be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). While not all tumours are cancer, any unusual growth should be properly evaluated to determine its nature and appropriate management.
Urological tumours can affect people of different ages, although some types are more common in older adults. Early diagnosis and timely treatment can help improve outcomes and reduce complications.
People living in Delhi, including areas such as Dwarka and Nagli, should be aware of the warning signs of urological tumours and seek medical attention if symptoms develop.
The exact cause of many tumours is not always known. However, several factors may increase the risk of developing tumours in the kidney, prostate, bladder, or testes.
Common risk factors may include:
Having one or more risk factors does not necessarily mean a person will develop a tumour, but awareness can help with early detection.

Treatment depends on the tumour type and stage and may include:
Testicular tumours develop within the testes, which are responsible for sperm production and testosterone production. Testicular cancer is one of the more treatable forms of cancer when detected early.

Treatment options may include:
Many urological tumours can be treated more effectively when diagnosed at an early stage. Regular health check-ups and prompt evaluation of symptoms can help identify problems before they become more advanced.
Individuals should not ignore warning signs such as blood in urine, unexplained pain, urinary difficulties, or lumps in the testicles. Seeking medical advice early may help reduce the risk of complications.
While not all tumours can be prevented, healthy habits may support overall urinary and reproductive health:
