The department of Urology is dedicated to providing state-of-the-art medical and surgical care in all aspects of adult and pediatric urology. The department of Urology provides screening, staging and the most up-to-date treatment of all uro-genital tumors including kidney, ureter, bladder and prostate. The Department of Urology has a complete range of facilities to provide comprehensive services in the management of urological conditions.
FACILITIES AND PROCEDURES PERFORMED :
.jpg) Uroendoscopy - a device consisting of a tube and optical system for observing the inside of a hollow organ or cavity. This observation may be done through a natural body opening or a small incision. PCNL - Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy provides patients with a safe and effective way to remove kidney stones using a minimally invasive surgical procedure. It is a technique where Kidney stones are removed by a small puncture in the back (key-hole surgery) and the stone is removed through a telescope. A spinal anaesthesia is given for the procedure which makes the whole operation pain free for the patient. The hospitalization is usually 3days.The patient can undertake international travel one week after surgery.
 URS - Ureteric stones are removed by passing a ureteroscope through the urethra & bladder. The surgeon locates the stone, removes it with special instruments or fragments the stone by using the Swiss Lithoclast. A stent ( a special silicone tube) is placed in certain situations. The patient is discharged the next day. The stent can be removed after three to four weeks.
Laparoscopic Surgery - This is an option in certain cases depending on the size & location of stones, existing diseases etc.
Laparoscopic Nephrectomy - a minimally invasive surgical technique that provides patients with a safe and effective way to remove a diseased kidney (e.g. from cancer, blockage, or stone disease).
Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty.
Laparoscopic ureterolithotomy
Laparoscopic diverticulectomy
Urooncology - Treatment of patients with cancer disease in the urinary tract including major surgery on bladder and prostate.
TURBT – Removal of bladder tumor endoscopically.
LAPAROSCOPIC RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY FOR CANCER PROSTATE
This surgery is done for Cancer Prostate. The entire prostate gland with the seminal vesicles are removed – we do a nerve sparing procedure.
.jpg) Prostate Disease (specialty clinic) - We have a specialty clinic within our hospital for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate diseases. The prostate is a sex gland in men. It is about the size of a walnut, and surrounds the neck of the bladder and urethra - the tube that carries urine from the bladder. It is partly muscular and partly glandular, with ducts opening into the prostatic portion of the urethra. It is made up of three lobes: a center lobe with one lobe on each side. The prostate gland secretes a slightly alkaline fluid that forms part of the seminal fluid, a fluid that carries sperm.
TURP -Transuretheral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a surgical procedure to deal with patients with an enlarged, benign (non cancerous) prostate, called Benign Prostate Hyperplasia or BPH.
.jpg) KTP (GREEN LIGHT) LASER FOR PROSTATE
Benign enlargement for Prostate is treated by Green Light PVP laser (KTP Laser). There is no bleeding and the patients are discharged on the same day. The catheter may be kept for just a few hours. If the patient is on anticoagulants (blood thinning medicines) e.g. after coronary stenting; the KTP Laser procedure can be done without stopping anticoagulants.
Treatment of Incontinence - The loss of bladder control. Urinary incontinence (urinary leak) and other urinary problems like urgency (going to the toilet frequently) and stress incontinence (leaking of urine with cough and laughing or straining) can be investigated and treated with minimally invasive methods.
Treatment of Haematuria - Haematuria is the presence of red blood cells (RBCs) in the urine. The urine appears normal to the naked eye, but examination under a microscope shows a high number of RBCs. We effectively evaluate and treat all types of urinary incontinence and haematuria.
Varicocele - Are enlargements of the veins that drain the testicles. A varicocele affects fertility due to the decrease in circulation of blood in the testicular area. Once a varicocele has been diagnosed, a surgical procedure can be done to correct the problem.
Infertility -We offer a complete range of facilities for investigation of male infertility. Female infertility investigation by gynaecologists with special training in infertility is also provided. Treatment is coordinated with the assisted conception unit and an 'IVF' laboratory.
Pediatric Urology - Pediatric Urology involves the diagnosis and treatment of all urological problems encountered in children.
