Urology

Broadly includes laparoscopic ablative and laparoscopic reconstructive surgeries.

Laparoscopic Ablative Surgeries :

• Laparoscopic simple nephrectomy : Simple nephrectomy for non-functioning kidney is done laparoscopically.
• Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy : Radical nephrectomy for renal cancers is done laparoscopically. It is oncologically equivalent to open radical nephrectomy.

Laparoscopic Reconstructive Surgeries :

• Laparoscopic pyeloplasty : A gold standard for reconstructive urology surgeries.
• Laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation : A standard indication would be for post hysterectomy ureteric reimplantation.
• Laparoscopic ureterolithotomy for large upper impacted stones.
