Urological Surgery

Urological Surgery in general deals with traditional surgery, urological endoscopy, and to some extent genital surgery.

In addition to traditional urological surgery and endoscopy, urogenital reconstructive surgery techniques have been perfected at Casa di Cura San Rossore.

In fact, urogenital reconstructive surgery is a superspecialty branch that is gaining an increasingly insistent foothold in the international surgical scene.

The diseases that require the intervention of the urogenital surgeon are varied. Among many:

  • Neoplastic pathology of the genitals, in which demolitive surgery was used until now.
  • Penile cancer, for which, until recently, amputation of the organ was used, with the obvious functional and psychological consequences, especially in young individuals. Using urogenital reconstructive and plastic surgery techniques, it is now possible to reconstruct the amputated portion with excellent aesthetic and functional results. Then, thanks to erectile dysfunction surgery, hydraulic tricomponent prostheses can be implanted, with resumption of sexual activity.
  • La Peyronie’s disease or induratio penis plastica.
  • Genital trauma.
  • Congenital male genital disorders such as congenital curved penis or hypospadias
  • Male incontinence. Some patients undergoing radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer suffer from urinary incontinence: there are currently perineal surgical techniques that allow, with the application of urethral suspension devices, the restoration of continence.
  • Female urinary incontinence, for which there are mini-invasive transvaginal techniques that allow restoration of continence.
  • Female bladder prolapse, for which there are vaginal surgical techniques that through the application of prolene mesh reconstitute female aesthetic and functional integrity.
  • Traumatic pelvic pathology or urethral infections, which can then be responsible for more or less complex stenosis of more or less extensive portions of both the anterior and posterior urethra. With urethral surgery through reconstructive surgery techniques using buccal mucosa or skin grafts, ureral stenoses are reconstructed.
