Treatment & Procedures

BPH - Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia…

This type of enlargement of the prostate gland isn’t associated with cancer but can lead to issues when trying to empty the bladder. This can be treated with surgery or medication. Minimally invasive BPH treatments such as the UroLift system and Green Light Laser Therapy are the preferred treatment options.

Comprehensive Stone Disease

Urine contains various dissolved minerals and salts, which can lead to the formation of stones if their levels become too high. These kidney stones can start small and gradually grow larger, filling the inner cavities of the kidneys. Certain stones remain within the kidney and do not pose any issues. Some substances, such as calcium, oxalate, and phosphate…

Penile Prosthesis

When all other treatment options for erectile dysfunction (ED) have failed or are not practical, a surgical procedure known as a Penile Prosthesis, or Penile Implant, may be an alternative. In order to promote erection and restore sexual function, inflatable or malleable devices are inserted inside the penis.

All Techniques of Urethroplasty

Urethroplasty is a medical procedure that involves the replacement or restoration of the urethra, typically due to obstructions caused by scarring, trauma, or innate deformities. After excising scar tissue, surgeons join the ends of the urethra or use tissue grafts from other parts of the body to repair the affected ureter. In situations where the…

Partial and Radical Cystectomy

A Partial Cystectomy entails the removal of a section of the bladder. This is commonly used to treat locally advanced bladder cancer. The goal of this surgery is to remove the cancerous tissue without compromising bladder function. Once the tumour is removed and the lymph nodes are inspected, the bladder that remains is reconstructed. Partial Cystectomies…

Uroflowmetry

Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure used to assess urinary function. It measures the flow rate and pattern of urine during voiding. The patient urinates into a uroflowmeter, which measures the volume and flow rate of urine, or into a dedicated toilet during the test. Uroflowmetry is a useful tool for determining flow rate, voided volume,…

Lithotripsy

Lithotripsy is a non-invasive procedure used to treat kidney stones that are too large to pass naturally through the urinary tract. This treatment uses focused ultrasonic energy or shock waves, guided by fluoroscopy (an X-ray film) or ultrasound (high-frequency sound waves), to break the stones into smaller fragments that can pass through the urinary…

Bladder Cancer

When the cells that comprise the bladder begin to proliferate uncontrollably, it results in bladder cancer. A tumour may emerge as additional cancer cells proliferate and eventually spread to other areas of the body. A relatively rare type of cancer that begins in the bladder lining is called bladder cancer. The little, hollow organ that houses your…

Kidney Cancer

The abnormal proliferation of cells in your kidney tissue results in kidney cancer, which is also referred to as renal cancer. A tumour is a lump that develops from these cells over time, while a malignant tumour has the potential to spread to other tissues and important organs. This process is known as metastasis. When healthy cells undergo mutations…

Testicular Cancer

This type of cancer is observed in younger men, mostly in their twenties or thirties. It could be indicated by bumps, lumps, hardened testicles or size changes. If diagnosed early, it can be treated successfully.

How do I prepare for the appointment with a urologist?

Here is a list of things to have ready before you see your urologist for the first time:

Every symptom, together with its attributes and length
Every recent medical test, including blood and urine tests, among others.
Bring your medication and any relevant medical records if you currently have any medical issues.

What causes kidney stones, and how common are they?

Kidney stones are typically caused by an excess buildup of substances like calcium, uric acid, oxalates, or phosphates in the urine. Factors contributing to their formation include recurring infections such as urinary tract infections, high levels of solutes in the urine due to heat-related conditions, dehydration, metabolic factors like hyperparathyroidism and gout, immobilisation (such as in patients with paraplegia), sedentary lifestyle, family history of stone formation, and certain medications. In India, it is estimated that 12% of the population experience urinary stones, and over 50% of those affected may have recurring stones.

Does the delivery of a baby lead to urinary issues?

The process of giving birth vaginally can result in the weakening of pelvic muscles, potentially leading to pelvic prolapse or urinary incontinence. While pelvic muscle strength can often be restored through exercises following a normal vaginal delivery, women who undergo multiple vaginal deliveries or experience prolonged or obstructed delivery may sustain permanent weakening of these muscles. This weakening can contribute to the prolapse of pelvic organs such as the uterus and urinary bladder. Additionally, it may lead to urinary leakage during activities that exert physical stress, such as coughing or laughing.

What is Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH), and is it harmful?

Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) refers to the enlargement of the prostate gland, a walnut-shaped organ situated around the urethra below the urinary bladder in men. Contrary to some misconceptions, it is not associated with the testes. This enlargement gradually compresses the urethra, leading to a reduction in urine flow. BPH is considered a normal part of the ageing process in men. However, it can cause urinary problems in over 50% of individuals and may necessitate treatment. While medications are often effective in managing these issues, surgery may be required in some cases. Modern prostate surgeries utilise endoscopic techniques, which are minimally invasive, and the use of lasers further enhances safety, even in elderly individuals at higher risk.

What is laser treatment in urology?

Laser treatment refers to the application of laser energy to certain urological treatments. Different laser kinds, each with unique wavelengths and characteristics, are used by urologists to target and treat various urinary system disorders. Laser lithotripsy, holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) or thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP), and laser ablation of bladder tumours are a few of the laser therapies used in urology.

What conditions do urologists treat?

Urologists, or specialists in urology, can treat a variety of illnesses and ailments, such as:

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are infections of the kidneys, urethra, and bladder that affect the urinary tract.
Kidney Stones are hard mineral and/or salt deposits that develop within the kidneys. They may hurt and restrict the passage of pee.
Bladder Issues: There are a few ailments that impact the bladder, including interstitial cystitis, hyperactive bladder, and bladder infections.
Prostate Issues: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer, and prostatitis or inflammation are a few frequent prostate issues.
Impotence, or the inability to get or keep an erection, is another name for erectile dysfunction.

When should I see a urologist?

You should consider seeing a urologist if you experience symptoms related to the urinary system, such as frequent urination, blood in the urine, difficulty urinating, pain in the lower abdomen or groin, or concerns about your reproductive health.

What are some lifestyle changes that can improve urological health?

Lifestyle changes that can improve urological health include drinking plenty of water, maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol and caffeine intake, and practising safe sex to prevent sexually transmitted infections.
