Minimally Invasive Treatment for Renal, Urological, and Genitourinary Diseases [Kansai Medical University Hospital]

You can receive highly advanced, high-quality minimally invasive treatment.

Our department is a pioneer in laparoscopic and robotic surgery, equipped with two different surgical robot systems, da Vinci and Hinotori, through which we provide highly advanced, high-quality minimally invasive surgery.
In addition to robot-assisted procedures, we also perform endoscopic laser treatments for urinary stone disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), utilizing multiple state-of-the-art laser devices. For prostate biopsy, we employ MRI-fusion guided biopsy.
