Uro surgery covers minimally invasive endoscopic treatment of the kidneys, ureters, bladder and prostate. Using fine telescopic instruments passed through the natural urinary passage, many stone and prostate conditions can be treated without an external incision.
This includes TURP (trans-urethral resection of the prostate) for men with an enlarged prostate causing urinary difficulty, as well as endoscopic removal of stones in the kidney, ureter and urinary bladder.
Treatment is planned after ultrasound or CT imaging confirms the size and location of the stone or the extent of prostate enlargement, with the least invasive suitable option always considered first.
