Urology Hospital near me in Patiala

What is Urology?

The female reproductive system is a series of organs that work together to allow a woman to reproduce. The organs within the female reproductive system include: 

• The ovaries, which are responsible for producing eggs and releasing hormones

• Fallopian tubes

• Uterus, which houses a developing fetus and secretes hormones into the body

• Vagina, or birth canal, through which sperm travels during intercourse

The male reproductive system makes it possible for men to reproduce. The testes produce sperm and store it in the epididymis. Sperm releases into the vas deferens and then moves into the urethra and the prostate gland to create semen. The penis passes on the semen to females during intercourse.

Diagnosis Facilities

• Uroflowmetry

Uroflowmetry is a test to measure urine production at a given time. It determines whether or not a patient has an obstruction of the urinary tract and can also monitor treatment for an obstruction. To know more about uroflowmetry treatment in Patiala, visit Manipal Hospitals

• Panendoscopy

Panendoscopy for urology is a procedure that uses a specialised endoscope to examine the urethra and bladder. It detects abnormalities related to infections, cysts, tumours, or other conditions. The procedure involves inserting an endoscope into the urethra and bladder via the urethral opening, allowing doctors to see inside these areas to identify potential problems.

• Cystoscopy

Cystoscopy examines the inside of the bladder, urethra, and ureters. It diagnoses bladder cancer, urinary tract stones, bladder lining inflammation (cystitis), or other diseases. During cystoscopy, a thin tube with a lighted end (cystoscope) goes into the urethra and examines the bladder and ureters.

• Biopsy

A biopsy is the examination of tissue samples from the body. A biopsy diagnoses a urinary tract infection diagnoses cancer and determines if an individual has kidney stones or other kidney problems or if someone has an enlarged prostate (known as benign prostatic hypertrophy). A urology biopsy involves taking tissue samples from the urinary tract and reproductive organs within the body. If doctors suspect cancer, they may also want to take biopsies from nearby lymph nodes and other areas where tumours might develop.

Treatment Facilities

• Partial and Radical Cystectomy

Partial cystectomy is a surgery that removes only part of the bladder. Radical cystectomy, on the other hand, removes the entire bladder and associated organs. If a patient has cancer in the bladder, partial cystectomy may be more appropriate than radical cystectomy as it helps to preserve some urinary function while removing the cancerous cells. Partial cystectomy also has less chance of complications than radical cystectomy.

• Penile Prosthesis

A penile prosthesis treats erectile dysfunction. The device is a hollow cylinder placed in the penis, typically containing two inflatable cylinders. The man can manipulate these cylinders to achieve an erection.

• Urethroplasty

Urethroplasty is a surgical procedure to repair a urethrorectal fistula. A urethrorectal fistula is a condition that occurs when the tissue between the urethra and rectum is damaged, causing urine to leak out of the vagina, causing complications such as urinary tract infections and incontinence. Urethroplasty involves repairing the damaged tissue so that it joins together again and allows urine to flow normally.

• Lithotripsy

Lithotripsy treats kidney stones using focused shock waves to break the stones into smaller pieces. A lithotripter machine generates the shock waves, which uses ultrasound to focus the shock waves on one spot within the kidney.

• Endourology

Endourology is a subspecialty within urology that uses tiny instruments and endoscopes to view the urinary tract and perform surgery. It is also known as laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery. Endourology procedures include Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP), Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and Ureteroscopy (URS)

• Reconstructive Urology

Reconstructive urology restores the normal functions of the urinary tract by rerouting, repairing, or recreating areas of the urinary tract and reproductive organs. It treats congenital disabilities and injuries. Some procedures under Reconstructive urology include lap/, Ileal replacement of the Ureter, Boari Flap, and Augmentation Cystoplasty.

• Laparoscopic Urology

Laparoscopic urology are essential in minimally invasive surgical procedures to manage various urologic disorders, including cancerous and benign conditions. Advanced laparoscopic urology is available in very few hospitals across India, including Manipal Hospitals, Patiala. Laparoscopic urology is a surgical technique through small incisions with the help of a camera and surgical instruments. 

• Radical and Partial Nephrectomy.

Radical and partial nephrectomy are surgical procedures that remove the bladder, the surrounding tissue, and a small portion of the ureter. The operation treats bladder cancer when it spreads into the bladder wall or returns after initial treatment. Depending on the spread, a partial or radical cystectomy or bladder removal is needed to treat cancer.

In a radical nephrectomy, the surgeon removes all of the bladder and ureters, tubes that carry urine from kidneys out of the body. In a partial nephrectomy, only part of the bladder is removed, along with some surrounding muscle and tissue.

• Radical Nephroureterectomy

Radical Nephroureterectomy is a surgical procedure that may remove the entire ureter and the kidneys. The surgeon will remove the entire kidney and some surrounding tissue around it. Then, they will use a specialised instrument called a resectoscope to remove any remaining cancer cells.

• Total or Partial Penectomy

Penectomy removes all or part of the penis. Partial penectomy removes only a portion of the penis, while total penectomy includes the removal of all external genitalia. Partial penectomy may be used as a treatment for penile cancer or as part of gender reassignment surgery.

• Radical Orchiectomy

Radical orchiectomy is the removal of both testicles. It is also known as "orchiectomy." This procedure aims to treat cancer in the testicles, which can spread to other body parts if not treated. It also treats prostate cancer or other conditions that require the removal of the testicles.

• Prostate Surgery

Prostate surgery is the removal of the prostate gland. The prostate gland is located under the bladder and surrounds the urethra. It produces a fluid that carries sperm. Prostate surgery happens when the surgeon detects lower urinary tract disease, including a frequent urge to urinate, burning during urination, blood in the urine, or the inability to control urination. Laser-assisted prostatectomy uses a laser to remove tissue from the prostate gland, while open radical prostatectomy removes the entire gland plus some tissue around it.

Radical prostatectomy treats cancer when it has not spread beyond the prostate gland. Radical prostatectomy also cures localised cancer when no metastases (spread of cancer cells) exist outside the gland.

• Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL)

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) removes kidney stones from the urinary tract. PCNL happens under general anaesthesia and involves using a device called a lithotriptor to break up the stone to remove it through a small incision in the skin. PCNL helps people who have large kidney stones, have had previous surgeries on their kidneys, or have already tried other methods of treating them without success. The procedure offers an alternative to emergency surgery or repeated hospital visits for patients with chronic kidney stones.

• Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS)

Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) involves the removal of a kidney stone or other foreign matter by accessing the kidney through an incision in the abdominal wall or entering through the ureter.

• Ureteroscopy (URS)

Ureteroscopy (URS) is a minimally invasive procedure that diagnoses and treats several urologic conditions, such as kidney stones and tumours. During this procedure, a ureteroscope is inserted into the urethra, allowing the visualisation of the urinary tract. It allows for the removal of kidney stones and other obstructions from the ureters.

• Renal Transplant

Renal or Kidney transplant is the organ transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage kidney disease. Renal transplantation is one of today's most common and successful life-saving procedures. At Manipal Hospitals, Patiala, we perform laparoscopic donor nephrectomy for minimal pain during surgery. Our surgery is pathbreaking technology evolution.
