Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy
Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a minimally invasive surgery for prostate cancer that removes the prostate and seminal vesicles using robotic assistance.
Robotic-assisted Radical Cystectomy
Robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is an advanced surgery for muscle-invasive or high-risk bladder cancer, involving the removal of the bladder, nearby lymph nodes, and additional structures based on gender—prostate in men and uterus in women.
Robotic -assisted Simple Prostatectomy
Robotic simple prostatectomy, or Millin’s procedure, is a surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) that removes the inner portion of the enlarged prostate causing blockage, preserving the outer capsule and surrounding structures.
Echolaser
Echolaser treatment is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure designed to address benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. This technique combines advanced laser technology with real-time ultrasound guidance to target and reduce excess prostate tissue causing urinary symptoms.
Rezum
The Rezūm procedure is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment designed for men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate. This procedure utilizes the natural energy stored in water vapor (steam) to target and shrink excess prostate tissue responsible for urinary symptoms.
Aquablation
Aquablation is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment designed for men suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, which obstructs the flow of urine. It uses advanced waterjet technology for precise tissue removal.
Optilume
Optilume is an innovative treatment for urethral strictures, a condition characterized by the narrowing of the urethra due to scar tissue. This narrowing can lead to difficulty urinating and other urinary problems. Optilume combines balloon dilation with drug-coated technology to effectively widen the urethra and prevent scar tissue from reforming.
Bipolar TURP
Bipolar Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a modern surgical procedure designed to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland. This technique uses bipolar energy to remove excess prostate tissue while minimizing bleeding and reducing recovery time.
TURBT
Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT) is a critical procedure used in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer. This minimally invasive surgery involves the removal of bladder tumors through the urethra, eliminating the need for external incisions.
Bladder biopsy
A bladder biopsy is a procedure to collect tissue samples from the bladder wall, mainly to diagnose tumors, inflammation, or infections. It is often performed when symptoms like blood in the urine, frequent urination, or pelvic pain suggest conditions such as bladder cancer.
Transperineal biopsy of the prostate
Transperineal biopsy is an effective method for diagnosing prostate cancer, especially in patients with high PSA levels or abnormal rectal exams. It accesses the prostate through the perineum, providing a direct approach for tissue sampling.
Ureteroscopy
Ureteroscopy and laser fragmentation is a minimally invasive procedure primarily used to treat kidney stones, especially those located in the ureter or kidney.
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is a non-invasive medical procedure used to treat kidney stones and certain types of stones in the ureter or bladder.
Bladder Botox Injections
Botox injections are used to treat overactive bladder (OAB), a condition marked by sudden urges, frequent urination, and sometimes incontinence. While traditional treatments like lifestyle changes, medications, and pelvic floor exercises exist, they can be challenging and impact quality of life.
Urethral dilation
Urethral dilation is a procedure designed to widen a narrowed urethra caused by conditions like stricture, scarring, or trauma. It is typically performed to relieve symptoms such as difficulty urinating, weak flow, and retention.
Vasectomy
A vasectomy is a common, minimally invasive surgery for permanent male contraception. The vas deferens—tubes that carry sperm from the testicles to the urethra—are cut or blocked to prevent sperm from mixing with semen, effectively preventing pregnancy.
Orchidectomy
Orchidectomy is the surgical removal of one or both testicles and is a critical treatment for testicular cancer, the most common cancer in young men aged 15 to 35. The procedure is typically the first line of defense after a testicular mass is detected through physical examination or imaging.
Circumcision
Circumcision is a surgical procedure in which the foreskin—the retractable fold of skin covering the head of the penis—is carefully and completely removed. This procedure is commonly performed for a variety of reasons, including cultural, religious, and specific medical purposes or preferences.
Hydrocele Repair
Hydrocele repair, also known as hydrocelectomy, is a surgical procedure performed to correct a hydrocele—a condition where fluid accumulates around the testicle, causing swelling in the scrotum.
Epididymal Cyst Excision
Epididymal cyst excision is a surgical procedure to remove a cyst from the epididymis, a coiled tube located at the back of the testicle that stores and transports sperm.
