Urology is the branch of medicine that focuses on surgical and medical diseases of the male and female urinary tract system and the male reproductive organs. The organs under the domain of urology include the kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and the male reproductive organs (testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and penis). Urology combines the management of medical conditions, such as urinary tract infections with the management of surgical conditions such as bladder or prostate cancer, kidney stones, congenital abnormalities and traumatic injury.
