Department is very well established both for Cadaver & Live related renal transplant. Renal Transplants are being done successfully on regular basis with excellent results. Patients from across the globe have been operated at our world class facility.

Apollo Hospitals Department of Urology offers a comprehensive Urological service to diagnose and treat stone disease, urological cancers, incontinence, impotence and other urinary difficulties. The Urology Department is located on the ground floor. The services offered by the Department include:

The well trained surgeons and oncologists at Apollo with a backup of all investigational tools including MRI & CT scans and ultrasound including TRUS offer a comprehensive uro-oncology service. All major and minor uro-oncology problems will be suitably investigated and appropriately treated, as per individual needs.

All aspects of endourology (surgery through a telescope which does not require open operations ) including treatment for prostate (TURP), bladder cancers (TURBT) urethral strictures (narrowing of water pipe). Kidney and ureteric stone (PCNL & URS) are available. Intracorporeal lithotripsy (breaking of stones through endoscopies) using the pneumatic lithotripsy avoids open surgery for ureteric & renal stones. High class imported equipments with established track record are already available at Apollo and newer methods using lasers/ vapourisation will be made available soon.

This facility at Apollo Hospital is unique in itself. Well trained surgeon do reconstructive surgery to prevent ablation and provide near normal urinary tract. The surgeries done include renal, ureteric, bladder and, urethral reconstruction, surgeries for VVF, UVF , urinary leak and renal revascularization etc.

Apollo Hospital has full range of paediatric endourology equipment and the department offers treatment of all types paediatric urological disease like, PUV, VUR, PUJ obstruction hypospadias, epispadias, urinary leak & stone disease etc.

A method of treating kidney and ureteric stones without surgery is available with facilities for complementary methods of treating stones endoscopically. The Direx is a versatile machine with a proven safety and efficacy. This enables a vast majority of kidney and ureteric stones to be treated without requiring anaesthesia. Most patients tolerate the procedure even without analgesia. The positioning, focusing and delivery of shock waves is all well controlled with safety cutoffs to prevent damage by human error.

There has been an evolution in surgical practice from traditional open approaches toward minimally invasive means of treating operative lesions. Laparoscopy is coming up in a big way in Urology. The benefits of laparoscopic surgery includes a lower requirement for pain medication, a shorter hospital stay, reduced convalescence, and a more rapid return to full activity. At Apollo hospital, we have the state of art laparoscopy set-up and we provide both diagnostic as well as therapeutic procedures with expertise

A problem for over 10% of adult population can be fully investigated and treated. Apollo provides specialised facilities for pharmacotherapycavernosography, in addition to doppler studies for assessment of blood flow.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse is a common finding among women with urinary incontinence. According to Women’s health initiative, 41% of women over the age of 50 experience pelvic organ prolapses. Addressing these concomitant support defects using mesh material is crucial for the comprehensive care and durable long term results of these patients. At Apollo Hospitals, urologists are well experienced and expert in managing women with the problem of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence. They offer Vaginal as well as laparoscopic reconstructive procedures such as TVT, Pubovaginal slings, Collagen injection and Total pelvic reconstruction using proline mesh.

The most advanced fully computerized video urodynamic machine at Apollo which diagnose all kinds of incontinence and difficulty in passing urine so as to enable the right treatment. These machines also include EMG facilities which are a must for diagnosing urinary and bowel problems secondary to spinal injuries, stroke. Parkinsonism and other neurological disorders. This laboratory has well designed facilities for the entire range of studies including Uroflowmetry , filling and voiding cystometry , urethral pressure profile studies (UPP) and VCUG (in addition to EMG and covernosometry).
