Neuro-Urology is a specialized field within urology that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of urinary and sexual dysfunction caused by neurologic conditions. The Department of Urology at Sterling Hospitals in Ahmedabad is dedicated to providing comprehensive care for patients with neurologic conditions that affect the urinary system. Here is a brief overview of the services offered: 

  • Evaluation and management of neurogenic bladder, which is a condition that occurs due to damage or dysfunction of the nervous system, leading to impaired bladder function. This may include assessment of bladder function, urodynamic testing, and development of appropriate management strategies such as medication, catheterization, and bladder training. 
  • Diagnosis and treatment of urinary incontinence, retention, and other voiding dysfunctions caused by neurologic conditions such as spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and other neurological disorders. This may involve a combination of conservative management, medications, and advanced treatment options such as neuromodulation or botulinum toxin injections.
