We aim to provide patient-centered care, offering a range of treatments from the latest robot-assisted surgeries and radiation therapy to end-of-life care, ensuring that patients can complete their treatment at our hospital.

Prostate Cancer

Since May 2013, we have been performing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy using the da Vinci Si system. Traditional open surgery often resulted in significant blood loss, necessitating autologous blood transfusion in most cases. However, with robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, blood loss has been significantly reduced, eliminating the need for transfusions. The operation time is comparable to open surgery, and postoperative recovery, including urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction, is faster. Additionally, radiation therapy, when combined with external beam radiation and brachytherapy, has shown equally favorable outcomes as surgical treatment. Patients are thoroughly informed about these surgical and radiation therapy options and can make informed choices regarding their treatment.

Bladder Cancer

Most surgeries are performed endoscopically, with an emphasis on bladder preservation whenever possible.

Kidney Cancer and Upper Urinary Tract Cancer

We generally recommend minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. However, the treatment plan is decided in consultation with the patient and their family, taking into account the patient’s condition and disease status.

Urolithiasis (Kidney Stones)

In May 2015, we introduced the latest extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) device, making shock wave therapy, which can be performed on an outpatient basis, our first-line treatment choice. For other urological conditions, we also focus on patient-centered care, ensuring that our medical services are approachable and easy to discuss with patients.
