Urological procedures are performed to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the prostate, bladder and urinary system. Depending on the condition, minimally invasive surgery may help address urinary obstruction, prostate problems or selected bladder conditions.
At Masters of Scopy, laparoscopic techniques may be considered for selected urological procedures. Treatment is planned according to the patient's condition, diagnosis and surgical requirements.
