A 56-year-old male patient presented with a right renal mass consistent with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), measuring 10 × 8 cm, involving the upper pole and extending to the renal hilum.

Given the tumor location and extent, nephron-sparing (partial) surgery was not feasible, and the patient was planned for laparoscopic right radical nephrectomy.

The procedure was performed using a minimally invasive laparoscopic approach, allowing precise dissection and safe control of the renal hilum while adhering to oncological principles. The surgery was completed successfully without intraoperative complications.

The patient had an excellent postoperative course, with minimal pain, early mobilisation, and rapid recovery, and was discharged on postoperative day 5.

This case highlights the role of laparoscopic radical nephrectomy in managing large renal tumors where nephron-sparing is not feasible, offering the benefits of minimally invasive surgery while ensuring oncological adequacy and patient-centered recovery.
