Our Operations

At Urology Department 50 C, we investigate, treat, and operate on individuals with diseases of the urinary tract. We are a surgical unit specialized in urology with both planned and emergency services. Our elective services focus on cancers of the bladder, prostate, kidneys, and testicles. In the acute flow, we handle major kidney trauma, acute bleeding, sepsis, and acute injuries to the penis and testicles. We also operate on young adults with malformations of the urinary tract. We work in teams together with the patient. This means that we focus on the whole person's unique needs, resources, and experiences, not just the disease. In your work, you will meet patients of various ages and situations, where you will help make a difference in their lives.
