Who is the Urologist?

If you have had kidney stones you will almost certainly have been to the Urologist. But do you know which pathologies it treats and for which problems? In addition to the prostate, what can you contact the urologist for? Urology is the medical and surgical branch that deals with treating and preventing diseases of the male and female urinary tract and also of the male reproductive system. The organs involved include the kidneys, bladder, urethra, ureters, adrenal glands and, for men, the prostate, testicles and penis. Who has problems related to the areas listed above, needs a Urologist, to diagnose and treat the anomalies, dysfunctions and diseases that affect the excretory organs.

The specializations of urology

Urology, in turn, is divided into more specialized branches, including:

• Female urology, focuses on the female urinary and genital tract and its specific pathologies.
• Male infertility, investigates the causes of a deficit in man’s reproductive capacity.
• Neuro-urology, treats dysfunctions of the urinary system as a result of neurological injuries or diseases.
• Onco-urology, deals with the diagnosis and treatment of cancers of the male and female urinary tract and those affecting the male reproductive system.
• Endourology, endoscopic surgery for urinary tract diseases.

What the Urologist does, the pathologies he deals with!

Let’s take a look at the main dysfunctions and pathologies that Urology specialists treat daily in men and women.

For men:

• Tumors of the bladder, penis, kidney, testicles, adrenal glands and prostate.
• Enlarged prostate, is a medical condition of a non-cancerous nature, characterized by the volumetric enlargement of the prostate gland.
• Erectile dysfunction, is the inability to have and / or maintain a satisfactory erection.
• Infertility, poor efficacy in conception.
• Interstitial cystitis, typical inflammation of the bladder not attributable to bacterial or fungal infection.
• Kidney disorders, conditions that alter the anatomy and function of the kidneys.
• Kidney stones, aggregations of mineral salts that form in the urinary tract.
• Prostatitis, inflammation of the prostate gland.
• Urinary infections (UTIs), of which the most common is cystitis.
• Varicocele, formation of varices in the scrotum

For women: 

• Prolapse of the bladder, sagging of the pelvic floor
• Cancer of the bladder, kidney or adrenal glands
• Interstitial cystitis, much more common in women than in men
• Kidney stones, small aggregates of mineral salts that form in the urinary tract
• Overactive bladder, caused by a continuous and involuntary spasm of the muscle surrounding the bladder, induces a continuous urge to urinate
• Urinary infections (UTIs), also in this case much more frequent in the female population for anatomical reasons

How is a urological examination carried out?

First we start from the diagnostic phase which is the most important step to then implement an effective and targeted treatment. A detailed visit investigates the disorders and diseases affecting the male and female urinary tract. The visit initially consists of an anamnesis, that is a data collection, which takes place with an interview between patient and doctor. Dr Castiglione is particularly empathetic and attentive to patients, thanks to these characteristics, he is able to put patients at ease. During this delicate phase, important iinformation is collected such as the general state of health, any familiarity with certain types of diseases (e.g. tumors) affecting the urinary tract, lifestyle, and the intake (or not) of drugs and obviously the symptoms felt by the patient. After this first phase, we proceed with the physical examination which, for obvious reasons, differs according to the patient’s sex.

Male Visit:

It focuses on the lower abdomen and genital organs, as well as prostate control.

Female visit:

It focuses on the lower part of the abdomen and genital organs, sometimes associating them with a gynaecological check-up.

Based on the problem diagnosed, the urologist may ask to perform further checks exams  including:

• CT scan.
• Ultrasound.
• Magnetic resonance.
• Urinalysis with possible urine culture.
• Transrectal prostate ultrasound.
• Urinary cytology.
• Cystoscopy.
• Sequential and dynamic renal scintigraphy.
• Uroflowmetry.
• Seminal fluid examination.
• Scrotal ultrasound.

When should women see the urologist?

Women can develop urological problems at any stage of life, but there are a number of medical conditions that become more common after menopause. The following problems are among the most treated in women:

Overactive bladder

An urgent need to urinate. Those with an overactive bladder may exhibit some of the following symptoms:

• A sudden urge to urinate that can be difficult to control.
• You wake up more than once a night to urinate.
• You urinate eight or more times in 24 hours.

Urinary incontinence

This problem is much more common than you might think! In fact, about 57 percent of women between the ages of 40 and 60 suffer from mild to severe urinary incontinence.

Urinary tract infections

When germs enter the urinary tract (bladder, kidneys, and the tubes that connect them) a UTI can occur. Most urinary tract infections occur in the urinary tract and are harmless if treated quickly, but if it spreads to the kidneys, more serious complications can occur. Women are more susceptible than men to urinary tract infections simply because of anatomical differences. The most common symptoms of this infection include burning when urinating, frequent passing of small amounts of urine, bloody urin  and pelvic pain.

Prolapse of the bladder

The bladder is held in place by a tissue called the pelvic floor. When that tissue is stretched or weakened, the bladder can fall into the vagina.  This condition is often caused by getting older, being overweight, menopause, or having pelvic surgery in the past. It can lead to an overactive bladder, urine leakage, and urinary tract infections.

Why it is important to go to the Urologist for prevention

Self-diagnosis these days is a fairly common practice, you read two things on the internet and the diagnosis is ready. The best thing you can do is to talk to your doctor! In many cases, an interview resolves doubts and questions, after all the treating doctor is the person who knows us best, because he has followed your medical history. If the treating physician identifies a disorder that is worth being evaluated by a specialist, the next step is to contact the urologist, Dr Castiglione. In the context of the prevention of some pathologies, there are steps to be respected. Undergoing periodic urological checks allows early diagnosis and therefore timely intervention in the case of numerous cancer pathologies (of the prostate, kidney, bladder and testicle) and benign pathologies (urinary stones, benign hyperplasia of the prostate and prostatitis, male infertility and sexual dysfunctions).

How to book a visit to the Urologist

As we have seen there are several reasons to consult a urologist, but how do you access a urological visit? In most cases, the attending physician is the reference figure who can, by interpreting the symptoms, request a urological examination for his patient, particularly if the symptoms persist for long periods or do not improve. The alternative, to obtain an almost immediate visit, is to contact a specialist, such as Dr Fabio Castiglione, privately.
