Our UROLOGY and ANDROLOGY Unit is aimed at caring for men’s health and quality of life.
It is made up of highly skilled staff. It uses state-of-the-art laparoscopic and endourological techniques, its philosophy relying on using minimally invasive surgery whenever possible.
EIVI-ANDROS is a disruptive, comprehensive program aimed at preventing the most frequent benign and malign urological conditions, fighting the effects of ageing on men’s mictional (prostate or bladder issues) and sexual quality of life, and achieving an early diagnosis of the most frequent pathologies. The program benefits from the latest advances regarding analytical testing, image-guided diagnosis, and image-guided studies allowing selective diagnoses to be performed and risk levels to be established. We have a cross-disciplinary team including rehabilitators, physical therapists, psychologists-sexologists, endocrinologists, and cardiologists as a complement of the urologist and the andrologist when required.
Annual routine check-ups are advised to all male patients from the age of 45. These check-ups are aimed at early detecting prostatic growth (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and prostatic cancer, and evaluating sexual function. Our final goal is MALE HEALTH.
Our team will use the best diagnostic techniques in order to preserve your sexual and genital health.
Your lack of sexual appetite, erectile dysfunction, early ejaculation, or infertility can be addressed. Our ability to interact with the Laboratory –sperm improvement and diagnosis techniques–, the endocrinology team – hormone treatments–, the gynecology team – for your partner’s study–, sexologists’ psychological support, and our expertise when it comes to solving problems requiring surgical intervention provide you with a whole array of possibilities ensuring your sexual health.
We also offer contraception –vasectomy– and seminal restoration –vaso-vasostomy– techniques as part of family planning techniques.
Lithiasis is defined as the development of stones in the kidney, ureters –ducts connecting the kidney and the bladder–, bladder, or urethra (duct connecting the bladder with the outside) which cause pain –renal colics– and urinary bleeding, and may damage kidney function ultimately.
Lithiasis treatment requires an accurate diagnosis using image-guided tests such as X-ray, ultrasonography, CT-scan-urography and/or Magnetic MRI.
Our team will offer you the most disruptive endo-urological –endoscopic–, laparoscopic, and minimally invasive surgical techniques available today to break up and remove the stones using the laser
Our close cooperation with the ONCOLOGY team and the other medical and surgical teams from Policlínica allows us to provide a comprehensive and cross-disciplinary approach to genito-urinary tumors (kidney, ureters, bladder, prostate, penis, and testicles) as well as retroperitoneal and pelvic cavity tumors. The Urology team has the necessary skills to perform all these procedures using laparoscopic and minimally invasive techniques whenever possible as well as reconstruction surgical techniques following tumor surgery.
The Urology team benefits from a large international experience in prosthesis (artificial urinary sphincters, penile prostheses, testicular prostheses) and mesh placement when it comes to treating multiple genito-urinary conditions.
