Prostate Cancer

• Prostate Needle Biopsy: Annual screening is performed by digital rectal examination (DRE) and blood prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level measurements in male patients with an increased incidence over the age of 40 for prostate cancer. Multiple prostate needle biopsy accompanied by ultrasound is performed for patients with suspicious examination and/or PSA values.
• Laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: Patients who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer as a result of pathological examination are treated with Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy surgery.
• Hormone therapy (HT) and Radiotherapy (RT): Hormone therapy (HT) and radiotherapy (RT) provide successful results in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer or who are not suitable for surgery.
• Other treatments: In common metastatic disease, testicular removal with surgical orchiectomy or medical (hormone therapy) castration and chemotherapy (CT) are performed.

Bladder Cancer

The first sign of bladder cancer, which is known to have a very close relationship with smoking, is usually bleeding in the urine. Bladder tumour examination is performed with rigid/flexible cystoscopy for patients who are admitted to our clinic with complaints of bleeding in the urine.

• Bladder Tumor Resection (TUR-MT): In the case of tumour detection, bladder tumour resection (TUR-MT) is performed endoscopically.
• Medication Therapy: In order to prevent recurrence in superficial bladder tumours, one-time or long-term chemotherapy drugs may be administered into the bladder as a complementary therapy.
• Cystoscopy: According to the pathology result, patients with tumours limited to the surface are checked with cystoscopy every 3 months.
• Radical Cystectomy: If there is a spread in the bladder's muscle layer as a result of pathology, it is necessary to completely remove the patient's bladder, remove the lymph nodes in the pelvis and create a new bladder from the small intestine. This operation, known as radical Cystectomy, can be performed laparoscopically or by the open method.
• Other treatments: This operation, known as radical Cystectomy, can be performed laparoscopically or by the open method. In diffuse metastatic disease, the treatment is chemotherapy followed by cystectomy.

Kidney Cancer

• Diagnosis and staging of kidney cancer
• Laparoscopically removal of cancerous tissue in low-stage cancers and preservation of healthy kidney tissues (laparoscopic partial nephrectomy)
• Complete removal of the cancerous kidney by laparoscopic radical nephrectomy
• Targeted treatments are given together with medical oncology in advanced kidney cancers.

Adrenal Gland Cancer

• Diagnosis and staging of adrenal gland cancers
• Laparoscopically, the cancerous tissue or the adrenal gland is completely removed.

Ureteral Tumor

• Diagnosis and staging of the ureteral tumour
• In ureteral tumours, laparoscopic removal of cancerous tissues and all organ-preserving treatments with laser are applied.

Testicular Cancer

• Testicular cancer seen in men of reproductive age gives symptoms with palpable hardness and mass in the testicle.
• Diagnosis and staging of the disease is carried out.
• Only the preservation of the healthy testicle by removing the cancerous tissue (Partial orchiectomy) and the complete removal of the testicle (Radical orchiectomy) are performed.
• In advanced disease, chemotherapy/radiotherapy and laparoscopic/open removal of lymph nodes is performed in cooperation with medical oncology that has spread into the abdomen (Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection)
