The branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary-tract system and the male reproductive organs is referred to as urology. Urological surgery integrates surgical activities for the pelvis, the colon, urogenital, and gynecological organs primarily for the treatment of obstructions, dysfunction, malignancies, and inflammatory diseases. It involves kidney surgery, kidney removal, bladder surgery, pelvic lymph node dissection, prostatic surgery, testicular surgery, urethra surgery, surgery of the penis, robotic prostatectomies and robotic nephrectomies. The subfields of urology are endourology, urologic oncology, neurourology, pediatric urology, andrology, reconstructive urology and female urology. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of urological surgery. The various advancements in this field are glanced at and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
