Our urology team comprises trained and skilled Laparoscopic surgeons who can perform various types of laparoscopic surgeries, including:
Laparoscopic nephrectomy - This is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which a diseased or non-functioning kidney is removed through small incisions made in the abdomen.
Laparoscopic pyeloplasty - This is a surgical procedure to treat a blockage in the ureteropelvic junction, where the ureter meets the kidney. During this surgery, the surgeon removes the blockage and reconnects the ureter to the kidney.
Laparoscopic prostatectomy - This is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which the prostate gland is removed through small incisions made in the abdomen. This surgery is used to treat prostate cancer.
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy - This is a surgical procedure in which one or both adrenal glands are removed through small incisions made in the abdomen. This surgery is used to treat adrenal tumors.
Laparoscopic cystectomy - This is a surgical procedure to remove the bladder or a portion of the bladder through small incisions made in the abdomen. This surgery is used to treat bladder cancer.
Laparoscopic ureterolithotomy - This is a surgical procedure to remove a kidney stone that is stuck in the ureter. During this surgery, the surgeon makes small incisions in the abdomen and uses special tools to remove the stone.
Video Endoscopic Inguinal Lymphadenectomy (VEIL) This is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed in the urology department to remove lymph nodes in the groin area. It is typically used to treat testicular cancer, penile cancer, and some types of bladder cancer.
During the procedure, small incisions are made in the groin area, and a laparoscope (a small camera) and other surgical instruments are inserted through the incisions. The surgeon can then visualize the lymph nodes and remove them using the laparoscope and instruments.
VEIL is a less invasive alternative to traditional open surgery, which requires a larger incision and a longer recovery time. VEIL has been shown to have a shorter hospital stay, less postoperative pain, and a quicker recovery time compared to traditional open surgery.
