Discover World-Class Urological Treatments in Switzerland

 

Urology focuses on the diagnosis, treatment and management of conditions related to the urinary system and male reproductive organs, with a key emphasis on early cancer detection. A wide range of diagnostic procedures facilitates the identification of kidney, prostate, urinary bladder, or testicular cancer in their earliest phases. Early detection significantly improves treatment efficiency and patient outcomes.


While urology is traditionally linked to male health, it is important to acknowledge its broader expertise that includes the treatment of female ureter or bladder issues.

 

Treatments available

Our urologists provide specialist treatment in the following fields:

Prostate Cancer

A common cancer in men, which is often treated surgically. Radiation or hormonal treatments are other therapy options.

Bladder/Kidney/Ureter/Testicular/Penile Cancer

 A variety of treatments including surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation is used for the management of the different cancer types affecting these organs.

Bladder/Renal Pelvis Inflammation

Infections or irritations may trigger inflammation requiring antibiotic treatment. Underlying causes are also evaluated.

Urinary Stones

These hard mineral deposits located in the urinary tract can be treated using medication and lithotripsy or can be surgically removed.

Incontinence

Specific physical exercises and drug treatments are used to manage involuntary urine leakage. Surgery may be indicated for more severe cases.

Sexual Disorders/Vasectomy

Sexual disorder issues may be caused by physical factors needing modification.
A vasectomy is a surgical male sterilization procedure that involves cutting or blocking the vas deferens, the tubes that carry sperm, from the testicles.

Infertility

Couples facing difficulty conceiving can explore treatments like hormone therapy, surgery, or assisted reproductive technologies.

Robotic-assisted biopsies

Artemis fusion biopsy is an advanced and minimally invasive technology for precision tissue sampling.

 

After an accurate diagnosis, urologists apply different medical approaches, techniques, and therapies to treat the above urological conditions, to ensure effective patient management and recovery. 
In specific cases, minor surgical procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis. Such outpatient procedures include vasectomies, biopsies, and circumcisions. Beyond these minor surgical procedures, more comprehensive treatments such as prostatectomy, radiation therapy and chemotherapy are fully personalised, to best address the requirements of individual conditions.

 

Advanced Surgical Technologies

Our specialised team has access to ultramodern surgical facilities and equipment across multiple hospitals

daVinci® Surgical Robot

The daVinci® surgical robot is used for an innovative form of minimally invasive surgery called laparoscopy or keyhole surgery. This technique involves making small incisions, through which a camera and surgical instruments are inserted into the abdomen. Extensive research confirms that laparoscopic surgery is as effective as open surgery, with the added benefits of greater patient comfort, reduced pain, shorter hospitalisation periods, faster recuperation, and more discreet scarring.

Artemis Fusion Biopsy

The Artemis fusion biopsy offers remarkable prostate cancer screening benefits. With this system it is possible to perform high precision, robot-assisted tissue sampling that can accurately detect even the minutest irregularities.
Consequently, a more precise diagnosis means better targeted therapeutic choices.

Microsurgical vasovasostomy

Using a sophisticated surgical microscope, procedures can be performed with threads thinner than a strand of human hair. This technique is now used in vasovasostomy protocols.

CyberKnife®

CyberKnife therapy is a form of radiosurgery offering an alternative or supplementary option for prostate cancer treatment compared to traditional methods. Radiosurgery administers a highly concentrated dose of radionuclide to the prostate, while optimally safeguarding healthy tissue. CyberKnife treatment typically consists of no more than five sessions and ensures minimally invasive, top-rate efficacy, in an outpatient setting.
