Understanding Urology Surgery

Urology surgery refers to a range of surgical procedures that treat diseases or abnormalities affecting the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and male reproductive organs such as the prostate, testes, and penis. These surgeries can range from minor outpatient procedures to complex operations requiring hospitalization.

Surgical intervention becomes necessary when conservative treatment options fail or when a condition poses a significant threat to health, quality of life, or overall bodily function.
