Urology Surgery
Urology surgery is a specialized branch of surgical care focused on treating conditions affecting the urinary tract, including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra, as well as the male reproductive system. At Al Neyadi Trust Hospital, our Urology Surgery Department offers advanced surgical interventions to address a wide range of urological conditions and improve patients’ quality of life.
Importance of Urology Surgery:
Urology surgery plays a critical role in managing complex urological conditions that may require surgical intervention to alleviate symptoms, restore function, and prevent complications. From minimally invasive procedures to more extensive surgical techniques, urology surgery offers patients effective treatment options for a variety of urological disorders.
Causes and Treatment:
Urological conditions may arise from various factors, including congenital abnormalities, infections, tumors, structural defects, and age-related changes. Some common urological issues treated through urology surgery include:
Kidney Stones: Kidney stones are solid mineral deposits that form in the kidneys and can cause severe pain and urinary obstruction. Urology surgery options for kidney stones include minimally invasive procedures such as extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL), ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) to remove stones and relieve symptoms.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): BPH is a common condition characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, leading to urinary symptoms such as urinary frequency, urgency, and incomplete emptying. Urology surgery options for BPH include transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), laser prostate surgery (such as GreenLight laser therapy), and minimally invasive procedures to relieve urinary obstruction and improve urinary flow.
Urinary Incontinence: Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of bladder control, which can significantly impact a patient’s quality of life. Urology surgery options for urinary incontinence may include sling procedures, artificial urinary sphincter implantation, and neuromodulation techniques to restore urinary continence and improve quality of life.
Prostate Cancer: Prostate cancer is a common malignancy affecting men, often requiring surgical intervention for treatment. Urology surgery options for prostate cancer include radical prostatectomy (open, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted), which involves removing the prostate gland and surrounding tissues to eliminate cancerous cells and prevent disease progression.
At Al Neyadi Trust Hospital, our Urology Surgery Department is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and staffed by experienced urologists and surgical teams specializing in minimally invasive and advanced urological procedures. We are committed to providing compassionate, personalized care to patients with urological conditions, ensuring optimal surgical outcomes and improved quality of life.
