Prostatic benign hypertrophy

  The prostate is a male sex gland located below the bladder and above the rectum, and is responsible for producing the seminal fluid. The BPH occurs when you increase the size of the prostate gland due to a hormonal imbalance in men: increase female hormones (estrogen) on male hormones (testosterone). Usually occurs in people over 70 years and among the symptoms that appear gradually, are: difficulty urinating, frequent urination, urgent feeling to urinate, need to press for emptying the bladder, etc. In severe cases, prostate hypertrophy can produce absolute inability to urinate, blood in urine or impaired kidney function.

Urologic Laparoscopy

Laparoscopy is a surgical technique inspection of the abdominal cavity that does not require large incisions. During the procedure, the abdomen is introduced into a laparoscope, which is a tube containing an optical system coupled to a light source. The camera allows the doctor to inspect, from a monitor, the pelvic organs and, if necessary, introduce other instruments through the same laparoscope to correct any problems. The advantages of laparoscopy in urology are many, such that shorter hospital and recovery is required, there is less chance of infectious complications, decreases postoperative pain and no visible scarring. Laparoscopy is mainly used in processes such as prostate cancer or some renal diseases. ...

Circumcision

  Circumcision is the total or partial excision of the foreskin, which is the skin that covers the tip of the penis by a surgical procedure. It is effective to correct disorders such as phimosis (which prevents the foreskin can be retracted and thus discover the glans) and paraphimosis (most often due to an inflammation of the foreskin) treatment. Circumcision is widespread universally, and many parents prefer to practice in their newborns, not a prescription, but for cultural reasons. This is a very simple operation, which lasts only a few minutes, and does not require general anesthesia.

Cystitis caused by a bacterial infection is usually treated with antibiotics. Cystitis is more prevalent in women because they have shorter urethra and is closer to the anus. ...

Cystocele

  Cystocele hernia is a protrusion or bladder into the vaginal canal. It occurs when the muscle that supports the bladder wall is so weak that it is unable to maintain its normal position, so the bladder tends to move down. This weakness can cause urine leakage from the bladder when abdominal pressure increases, which is what happens when you cough or sneeze, for example. Cystocele is relatively common in women after age 40 disorder, and the likelihood increases with age at menopause, after a particularly difficult birth and when obesity, among other reasons. In mild cases, treatment consists in performing Kegel exercises, which strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Surgery is needed in severe cases or when they fail those years. ...

Interstitial Cystitis

Cystitis is inflammation of the urinary bladder. The term interstitial cystitis (also called interstitial cystic) is used to designate cases in which the condition is chronic. It is far more common in women than in men, and the cause is unknown, although it is known that it is not caused by bacterial or viral infections. People affected by this type of cystitis wall have completely swollen and painful bladder, which causes scarring of the bladder or causes stiffness, resulting in the inability to expand as it fills with urine. Symptoms vary widely, but typically include pulse urgency to urinate, urinary frequency, and even pain during intercourse. There is no definitive cure for interstitial cystitis, so treatments are usually focused on improving symptoms, and may include diet, exercise bladder control, medication, physical therapy, etc. ...

Kidney stones

Kidney stones or kidney stones are small crystals that form in the kidney. Symptoms appear when the stones down the ureters, the tubes that carry urine to the bladder. The calculations are solid pieces of variables aspects mainly form at the expense of salts contained in body fluids. When the calculations are formed or accommodated in any area tract or urinary tract it speaks of urolithiasis. More specifically, when formed in the kidney, they called renal or kidney stones, and form due to waste products from the urine. They vary in size from the size of a grain of sand to a stone of considerable proportions. Moreover, in most cases, kidney stones leave the body without medical intervention, but can also remain in the kidney or urinary tract scroll through and get stuck, blocking the urinary tract and causing great pain. As for treatment, they are usually given painkillers, but has caused a blockage, it is necessary to resort to surgery. ...

Kidney Transplantation

  Kidney transplant is an operation that involves removing a kidney from a previously healthy individual (from a living donor or a cadaver) for placement in a patient who requires, usually caused by chronic kidney disease in the terminal phase. During the operation, the surgeon connects the artery and renal vein of the lower abdomen to the new kidney. The transplanted kidney begins to produce urine as blood starts to flow and makes the spoils function which was deficient, which can suspend the dialysis treatment. The operation is technically simple and after it the patient can lead a normal life, but need to take drugs for the rest of his life to prevent his body from rejecting the new kidney. ...

Pelvic floor reconstructive surgery

  What is pelvic floor reconstructive surgery? Reconstructive surgery of the pelvic floor is a surgical intervention oriented to the repositioning of the internal organs of the female genital tract.   Reconstructive surgery of the pelvic floor can be performed in different ways: via vaginal, abdominal, laparoscopic or by combining the previous ones   Why is it done? The objective of pelvic floor reconstructive surgery is to position the pelvic structures in order to correct urinary and / or faecal incontinence, pelvic pathologies and pelvic symptoms, as well as to protect sexual function.   What does it consist of? Pelvic floor reconstruction surgery is performed to hold the internal organs of the female pelvis: uterus, bladder and rectum. This procedure is performed with a polypropylene mesh, so that genital problems are corrected. It can be performed in different ways: vaginal, abdominal, laparoscopic (minimally invasive) or by combining the previous ones. The most usual way to do it is through the vaginal route.   Preparation for pelvic floor reconstructive surgery The best option for the patient before facing pelvic floor surgery is to undergo a vaginal physiotherapy treatment, in order to strengthen the musculature of the area for the intervention.   Care after the intervention Being a minimally invasive surgery, recovery is faster and better with less time in the operating room.

Phimosis

  Phimosis is a condition in which there is congenital or accidental of the foreskin of the penis ring narrow, which makes it impossible to retract to show the glans. It is common in children and can sometimes be caused by forced retraction of the foreskin at an early age. It can also be caused by an infection or scars that form after injury. Phimosis can be corrected by a simple surgical procedure called circumcision, which involves removing excess skin around the glans (bridle), permanently leaving it exposed. Instead, parafimosis is unable to return the foreskin over the glans. Usually causes pain and some swelling, and usually occurs in children or the elderly who have not been circumcised. ...

Prostatitis

  Prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate, a gland below the bladder of man, and that helps make semen. It is one of the most common disorders of the male genitourinary system, caused, in most cases, by bacterial infection, either chronic or acute. Other inflammatory conditions of the prostate may be chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (producing perineal or pelvic pain) and asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis (the symptoms are not obvious). The most common symptoms that can lead us to think that there is an inflammation of the prostate are associated with urinary disorders. When the cause is an infection, it is treated with antibiotics for several weeks to remove bacteria from the prostate. ...

Short Frenulum

Penile frenulum is the skin fold task of binding the underside of the glans with the inner surface of the foreskin. Its function is to help contract the prepuce over the glans. We speak short or short bridle when the frenulum is so short that restricts movement to do the foreskin, leading to discomfort during sexual activity. One consequence is that you can get to tearing, causing pain and some bleeding, which is not a medical emergency if complicated but requires medical treatment. There are different methods for this: from the use of corticosteroid creams and conducting exercises bridle manual extension until restorative plastic surgery (fenuloplastía), elimination (frenectomy) or circumcision. ...

Testicular Ectopia

A ectopia is an anomaly of the situation of an organ or a part thereof. When we talk about testicular ectopia, we refer to the anomalous position of a testicle caused by the lack of decline. That is, the testis has taken a different approach and have fallen through the abdominal cavity to settle in the area prepubiana in perineal position, etc., rather than in the scrotum. The difference between the testicular ectopia and cryptorchidism (or hidden testicle) is that in the latter case the testicle has not descended completely, so not in its normal position within the scrotum either. In the one case as in the other, you can perform early surgical treatment, from two years old to correct this anomaly. ...

Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence is the inability to control the bladder, which means that you can not always hold urine. It can affect anyone, but is most common in people over 50 years. Most control problems occur because the muscles that keep the bladder are too weak or too active. If they are weak, small amounts of urine to perform actions such as laughing or coughing are lost, which is known as stress incontinence. On the contrary, if they are too active, you can have an urgent need to go to the bathroom while having little urine in the bladder (urge incontinence or overactive bladder). Other causes include prostate problems and neurological damage. The treatment of urinary incontinence depends on the cause and type, but in general usually includes simple exercises, medicines and special devices. Surgery may be helpful at times. ...

Urodynamics

Urodynamics or urodynamics study is a test to know the functioning of the lower urinary tract, that is, how it is stored and eliminates urine. It is used to diagnose diseases such as urinary incontinence, neurological diseases affecting the urinary tract, urinary infections, etc. The test consists of several parts. First, the patient must urinate into a container called a flow meter, which measures the amount and speed of urine. After a probe is placed through the urethra using a numbing gel that reaches the bladder, and is used to measure pressure and filled with sterile saline. Finally, urinate around the tube, which is then removed. This is a total which lasts about 30 minutes simple procedure. ...

In this case, the organ is damaged more often is the kidney, followed by the bladder, urethra, testicles and ureters. In addition, there are two types of urogenital trauma. On the one hand, they are called closed, which are the most common, and include injuries from falls from heights, traffic accidents, sports injuries and direct hits on the external genitalia. Moreover, open trauma, caused mainly by stab wounds and fire or abdominal surgery is contemplated. ...

Varicocele

A varicocele is a varicose vein tumor formed by an (unusually swollen vein) or a group of varices, usually located in the scrotum or in the spermatic cord. Usually develops during the course of puberty, most often on the left side of the scrotum, and although it is usually not harmful, in some people it can damage the testicles or decrease sperm production. If testicular varicocele causes infertility, surgery, called varicocelectomy, which involves cutting the affected veins for blood flow is performed. An alternative to surgery is varicocele embolization, which makes a much smaller incision and involves placing a catheter into the vein. ...
