Other treatments in this speciality
ESWL (Shock Wave Lithotripsy)
Focused shock waves are passed through the body to break a kidney stone into fragments small enough to pass in the urine. No incision is needed.
RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery)
A flexible telescope is passed up into the kidney through the natural urinary passage and a laser breaks up kidney stones. No cuts are made.
PCNL
A small tunnel is made through the back directly into the kidney to break and remove large stones. It is the most effective option for large or complex stones.
TURP
The inner part of an enlarged prostate is trimmed away through the urinary passage using a telescope, widening the channel for urine. There are no external cuts.
HoLEP (Laser Prostate Surgery)
A holmium laser separates the obstructing prostate tissue from its capsule, which is then removed. It suits prostates of almost any size and usually involves less bleeding.
Circumcision
The foreskin is removed surgically — by conventional technique, stapler device or laser — to treat phimosis and recurrent foreskin infections.
