Laser ProstatectomyProstatectomysurgical removal of all (radical) or part (partial) of the prostate gland
USC urologists employ the latest techniques in laser prostatectomy to help treat BPH and relieve obstructive symptoms. With the use of this procedure, patients have short recovery time and see rapid symptom relief.
Bladder
Bladder symptoms are not just confined to female patients. In fact, men are just as likely as women to be bothered by certain types of bladder dysfunction. Symptoms may be related to the bladder, the prostate or both. USC urologists are highly skilled in diagnosing the cause of symptoms and offer a full array of possible treatment options.
Prostatitis and Pelvic Pain
Prostatitis, or inflammation of the prostate, affects men of all ages. Our physicians tailor treatment to each individual patient’s needs, depending on the type of prostatitis presented. These treatments include anti-inflammatory medications, antibiotics and surgical options.
Neuro-Urology
Patients with neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, spinal cord injury and spina bifida can experience problems with the lower urinary tract, leading to a condition called neurogenic bladder. Treatment options for this condition include medications, botulinum toxin and sacral nerve stimulation, as well as minimally invasive and surgical options.
Medical Therapy
USC urologists provide various medical therapies related to BPH. These treatments tend to be in the form of pills, Botox injections and other therapies. Clinical trials in this area are also available for patients who meet proper criteria.
Biofeedback
Biofeedback is a form of physical therapy in which the patient is taught how to relax the pelvic floor muscle to facilitate voiding and to improve control. It usually requires regular treatments and has been shown to be effective in certain types of voiding dysfunction.
