UROLOGY

Best Urology Doctors / Urologist in Thanjavur

Urology is the field of medicine which deals with the surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary tract system and the male reproductive organs. It is also known as genitourinary surgery. The organs under this domain include the adrenal glands, kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and the male reproductive organs.

The urinary and reproductive tracts are closely related and disorders of one most likely affect the other. Urological techniques used are minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic surgery, laser-assisted surgeries and other scope guided procedures.

Subdisciplines of Urology

Urology is divided into several subdisciplines. The subdisciplines are mentioned below

Endourology :

Endourology is a field of urology which deals with the closed handling of the urinary tract. It used to be open surgery but now they are done using minimally invasive techniques. Endourology is performed using small cameras and instruments which are inserted into the urinary tract. The urinary tract can be reached through the urethra which enables the prostate surgery, surgery of the tumors of the urothelium, stone surgery and simple urethral procedures.

Laparoscopy :

Laparoscopy is an evolving branch of urology and has replaced some of the open surgery. This field is expanding by using robot-assisted surgery of the prostate, kidney, and ureter.

Urologic oncology :

It deals with the surgical treatment of malignant genitourinary diseases like cancer of the prostate, adrenal glands, bladder, kidneys, ureters, testicles, and penis. Most of the urologic oncologists use minimally invasive techniques to manage urologic cancers amenable to surgical management.

Neurourology :

It deals with the nervous system control of the genitourinary system and conditions causing abnormal urination. Neurological disorders and diseases like stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and other spinal cord injuries can disrupt the lower urinary tract and can sometimes result in urinary incontinence, detrusor overactivity, urinary retention, and detrusor sphincter dyssynergia.

Pediatric Urology :

Pediatric urology deals with disorders in children. Such disorders include cryptorchidism, congenital abnormalities of the genitourinary tract, vesicoureteral reflux, enuresis, and underdeveloped genitalia.

Andrology :

Andrology deals with the male reproductive system. It is mostly concerned with male infertility, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Andrology overlaps with endocrinology, as male sexuality is largely controlled by hormones. The surgeries in this field include vasectomy reversals, fertilization procedures and implantation of penile prostheses.

Reconstructive Urology :

It is a very specialized field of urology. It deals with restoring both the structure and function of the genitourinary tract. Full or partial hysterectomies, prostate procedures, trauma, diseases, obstructions, blockages, and occasional childbirth can make reconstruction necessary.

Female Reconstruction :

It is a branch of urology which deals with overactive bladder, pelvic organ prolapses, and urinary incontinence.
