Urology treatment focuses on diagnosing and managing conditions affecting the kidneys, ureters, bladder, prostate and urinary tract. Evaluation may include a review of symptoms, medical history, physical examination and appropriate investigations. Treatment depends on the diagnosis and may involve medication, minimally invasive procedures or surgery.
Kidney stone treatment involves assessing stones in the kidneys or urinary tract and determining the most suitable management approach. Depending on stone size, location and symptoms, treatment may include medication, monitoring, endoscopic procedures or surgical removal. The treatment plan is based on clinical findings and the patient's overall condition.
Ureteroscopy is an endoscopic procedure used to examine the ureter and, when appropriate, the kidney. It is commonly used to treat urinary stones and selected urinary tract conditions. Depending on the findings, specialised instruments may be used to retrieve stones or facilitate their fragmentation.
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine and may occur for several reasons, including bladder dysfunction or problems with urinary control. Assessment helps identify the type and possible cause of the symptoms. Treatment may involve lifestyle changes, pelvic floor exercises, medication or selected procedures depending on the underlying condition.
Erectile dysfunction refers to persistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for sexual activity. Evaluation may consider medical conditions, medication use, hormonal factors and psychological contributors. Treatment is selected according to the underlying cause and may include lifestyle changes, medication or other suitable interventions.
Prostate disorders may cause urinary frequency, a weak urine stream, difficulty starting urination or incomplete bladder emptying. Evaluation helps identify the cause and severity of symptoms. Depending on the diagnosis, management may involve medication, monitoring or a suitable urological procedure.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that may obstruct urine flow. Assessment may include symptom evaluation, examination and selected investigations. Treatment options range from lifestyle measures and medication to minimally invasive procedures or surgery for appropriately selected patients.
Prostate laser surgery uses laser energy to treat selected prostate conditions, particularly obstruction associated with benign prostate enlargement. The procedure may help reduce excess tissue affecting urine flow. The appropriate technique depends on prostate characteristics, symptoms, the patient's health and specialist assessment.
TURP is an endoscopic surgical procedure used to remove prostate tissue that obstructs urine flow. It may be recommended for selected patients experiencing troublesome urinary symptoms caused by benign prostate enlargement. Suitability depends on the severity of symptoms, prostate characteristics and other clinical factors.
TUIP is an endoscopic procedure in which small incisions are made in the prostate or bladder neck to improve urine flow. It may be appropriate for selected patients with urinary obstruction, particularly in certain cases involving a smaller prostate. A urologist evaluates the cause of symptoms before recommending this procedure.
TUMT is a minimally invasive technique that uses microwave energy to heat prostate tissue in an effort to reduce obstruction associated with benign prostate enlargement. Suitability depends on symptoms, prostate characteristics and available alternatives. A specialist can explain the potential benefits, limitations and risks.
TUNA is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy delivered through needles to treat selected prostate tissue. It has been used for certain cases of benign prostate enlargement. Whether it is appropriate depends on individual clinical findings and the availability of other treatment options.
Urinary tract disorders can affect urine flow, bladder function and the normal process of passing urine. Symptoms may include pain, urgency, frequent urination, difficulty urinating or changes in urine appearance. Evaluation helps identify possible causes and guide appropriate treatment.
Urinalysis is a laboratory examination of urine that can help identify signs of infection, blood, protein or other abnormalities. It may be used during the assessment of urinary symptoms and certain kidney or bladder conditions. Results are interpreted alongside symptoms and other clinical findings.
Vasectomy is a surgical procedure intended as a permanent method of male contraception. It involves interrupting the tubes that carry sperm into the semen. Patients should understand its permanence, possible risks and follow-up requirements before choosing this procedure.
Vasectomy reversal is a microsurgical procedure that reconnects the reproductive ducts after a previous vasectomy. The possibility of restoring sperm passage depends on factors such as the time since the original procedure and individual reproductive health. Assessment can help explain potential outcomes and alternative fertility options.
Circumcision is a surgical procedure to remove the foreskin covering the head of the penis. It may be considered for selected medical conditions, including certain cases of recurrent inflammation or phimosis. A urologist assesses the symptoms and discusses treatment options, recovery and potential complications.
A testicular examination helps assess symptoms such as pain, swelling, lumps or changes in the testicles. Depending on the findings, further evaluation may include ultrasound or other investigations. Sudden severe testicular pain requires urgent medical attention because some causes need immediate treatment.
DVIU is an endoscopic procedure used to treat selected urethral strictures, which are narrow areas of the tube that carries urine out of the body. A specialised instrument is used to open the narrowed section. Suitability depends on the stricture's location, length, recurrence and the patient's clinical condition.
Testicular surgery may be required for selected conditions involving testicular pain, swelling, masses or other abnormalities. Assessment may include physical examination, ultrasound and other tests as appropriate. The surgical approach depends on the diagnosis, urgency and need to preserve testicular function.
Male reproductive health assessment addresses concerns involving sexual function, reproductive organs and fertility. Evaluation may include medical history, physical examination and selected laboratory tests. Management depends on the underlying cause and may involve medication, a procedure or referral for additional specialist care.
