Urology
Urology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the urinary tracts of
males and females, and on the reproductive system of males. Medical
professionals specializing in the field of urology are called
urologists and are trained to diagnose, treat, and manage patients with
urological disorders. The organs covered by urology include the
kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and the male reproductive
organs (testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate
and penis).
In men, the urinary system overlaps with the
reproductive system, and in women the urinary tract opens into the
vulva. In both sexes, the urinary and reproductive tracts are close
together, and disorders of one often affect the other. Urology combines
management of medical (i.e., non-surgical) problems such as urinary
infections, and surgical problems such as the correction of congenital
abnormalities and the surgical management of cancers. Such
abnormalities within the genital region are called genitourinary
disorders.
Urology is closely related to, and in some cases
overlaps with, the medical fields of nephrology, andrology, gynecology,
proctology and oncology.
