Urology
Urology is the branch of medicine and physiology concerned with the function and disorders of the urinary system.
Cystoscopy
Cystoscopy (sis-TOS-kuh-pee) is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine the lining of your bladder and the tube that carries urine out of your body (urethra). A hollow tube (cystoscope) equipped with a lens is inserted into your urethra and slowly advanced into your bladder.
Hydrocele Repair
Hydrocele repair is surgery to correct the swelling of the scrotum that occurs when you have a hydrocele. A hydrocele is the backup of fluid around a testicle. Baby boys sometimes have a hydrocele at birth. Hydroceles also occur in older boys and men.
Vasectomy
The surgical cutting and sealing of part of each vas deferens, typically as a means of sterilization.
