Urology & Ostomy
Your hygeine is our priority
Urology and ostomy are closely related fields of medicine that often intersect. Urology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of conditions involving the urinary tract and male reproductive system. In cases where urological conditions or surgeries necessitate the rerouting of urine, such as the removal of the bladder due to cancer, urostomy procedures are performed. A urostomy creates a stoma through which urine is diverted from the urinary system, allowing patients to eliminate waste externally. Urologists and ostomy nurses work together to provide comprehensive care for individuals with urostomies, ensuring proper stoma management and helping patients maintain their urinary health and quality of life.

Urology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions related to the urinary tract and male reproductive system. Urologists are physicians who specialize in urology and are trained to handle a wide range of urological issues in both men and women.
What is Ostomy?
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening in the body to divert the flow of bodily waste or fluids from their normal route through the digestive or urinary system. This opening, called a stoma, is typically brought to the surface of the abdomen, where it is covered by a pouch or bag to collect the expelled waste or fluids.
