What is Urosurgery ?
Urosurgery is a surgical specialty that focuses on the surgical treatment of conditions affecting the urinary tract and male reproductive system. It encompasses a range of procedures that address both functional and structural issues within these systems.
Key Aspects of Urosurgery
Common Conditions Treated:
- Urinary tract stones (kidney stones)
- Prostate issues (e.g., benign prostatic hyperplasia)
- Bladder disorders (e.g., bladder cancer)
- Urethral strictures
- Congenital abnormalities of the urinary tract
- Urinary incontinence
- Testicular and penile conditions
Surgical Procedures:
- Cystoscopy: A minimally invasive procedure to examine the bladder and urinary tract.
- Ureteroscopy: A procedure to remove stones from the ureter.
- Laparoscopic Surgery: Minimally invasive surgeries to remove tumors or treat conditions in the kidneys or bladder.
- Open Surgery: Traditional surgeries for more complex issues, such as major tumors or significant anatomical abnormalities.
- Robotic Surgery: Advanced minimally invasive techniques using robotic assistance for precision in delicate procedures.
Collaboration: Urosurgeons often work closely with urologists, oncologists, and other specialists to provide comprehensive care.
