Urological Conditions

UTIs are common infections that happen when bacteria, often from the skin or rectum, enter the urethra, and infect the urinary tract.

Bladder cancer is a relatively rare form of cancer that starts in the lining of your bladder. Your bladder is a small hollow organ that holds your urine.

Prostate cancer develops in the prostate, a small walnut size gland located below the bladder and in front of the rectum in men.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia—also called BPH—is a condition in men in which the prostate gland is enlarged and not cancerous.

Urinary incontinence means a person leaks urine by accident. While it can happen to anyone, urinary incontinence, also known as overactive bladder, is more common in older people, especially women.

These glands are paired organs that lies adjacent to the upper part of each kidney. They are important because they produce a number of important hormones for body function.

Kidney cancer is a disease that starts in the kidneys. It happens when healthy cells in one or both kidneys grow out of control and form a lump (called a tumor).

Kidney disease means your kidneys are damaged and can’t filter blood the way they should. You are at greater risk for kidney disease if you have diabetes or high blood pressure. 

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction is a condition where blockage occurs at the junction where the ureter attaches to the kidney.

Kidney stones (also called renal calculi, nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis) are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside your kidneys.

Pelvic organ prolapse is when 1 or more of the organs in the pelvis slip down from their normal position and bulge into the vagina.
