Most urological problems are treatable with medication, but in some cases a surgical solution is the course of action. Today, a significant proportion of urological surgeries can already be performed with an endoscope, that is, using a fiber-optic device inserted through the urethra or the skin - even tumor surgeries that once seemed unthinkable without exploratory abdominal surgery. Endoscopic surgeries result in much less stress for the patient, with faster healing and fewer complications. We only resort to exploratory surgery if the disease cannot be safely cured by other means.
