Urology is a specialty that treats conditions involving the urinary system including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra, and male reproductive structures. Commonly performed urological procedures at NCSH include:

• ESWL (extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy): non-invasive treatment of kidney stones that uses shock waves to break stones into small fragments that can be passed out of the body through urination.
• Vasectomy
• Testicular Surgery (orchiectomy, hydrocelectomy)
• Placement of ureteral stents
• Cystoscopy
• Minimally Invasive Prostate procedures
