Urology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases affecting the urinary system and the male reproductive organs. It encompasses conditions related to the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and male reproductive organs such as the prostate, testes, and penis. Urologists are trained surgeons who also have knowledge of internal medicine, pediatrics, and gynecology, allowing them to address a wide range of clinical problems. The field includes subspecialties like urologic oncology, pediatric urology, and female urology, and employs advanced techniques such as robotic and laparoscopic surgery. Urology is crucial for maintaining overall health and well-being by addressing issues from urinary tract infections to cancers.
