Urological diagnoses and treatment
Patients undergoing urological treatment in Israel benefit from access to the most advanced protocols and equipment available. Israeli urologists and medical centers (such as Assuta, Ramat Aviv and Sheba) specialize in a wide range of urinary tract and male reproductive system disorders including:
- Benign and malignant kidney and adrenal glands tumors
- Prostatic tumors
- Bladder tumors
- Urolithiasis (kidney stones)
- Pediatric urological disorders (hypospadias, cryptorchidism, varicocele, etc.)
As is the case with other medical professionals, Israeli urologists are among the world leaders in their respective fields. Notable physicians include Sheba Medical Center’s Dr Zohar Dotan, who is a Urologic Oncology Fellow at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (New York, USA), and Prof. Yoram Mor, who is a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics, European Association of Urology (EAU), and also serves as the Secretary of The Pediatric Urology Section of The Israeli Urological Association.
In order to minimize complications, shorten recovery time and minimize the disruption to a patient’s life, when surgical intervention is necessary, Israeli specialists will always recommend the least invasive option. This includes, for example, endoscopic procedures such as TURBT and TURP and laparoscopic resection of kidney tumors (preserving kidney function).
