Urology
Urology is also known as genitourinary system, is the branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the urinary-tract system and the reproductive organs.
The following organs fall under domain of urology:
a) Kidneys
b) Adrenal glands
c) Ureters
d) Urinary bladder
e) Urethra
Male reproductive organs :
a) Testes
b) Epididymis
c) Vas deferens
d) Seminal vesicles
e) Prostate
f) Penis
Because the urinary and reproductive tracts are interconnected, problems with one have an impact on the other. Thus, a major spectrum of the conditions managed in urology exists under the domain of genitourinary disorders.
Urology combines the treatment of surgical disorders such as bladder or prostate cancer, kidney stones, congenital anomalies, traumatic injury, and stress incontinence with the treatment of medical (i.e., non-surgical) conditions such as urinary tract infections and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
