• Hydrocele: Managing a hydrocele, especially if it's causing discomfort or growing larger, prevents potential issues like discomfort, infection, or difficulty with fertility.
• Testicular Cancer: Knowing your family history and risk factors for testicular cancer empowers you to take proactive steps towards prevention and early detection.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Alexandre Rosen:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Rosen and our team of urologists are surgical specialists who diagnose and treat conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, and the male reproductive system. We manage a wide range of issues, from kidney stones and urinary tract infections to cancers of the prostate, bladder, and kidneys.

At what age should men start discussing prostate cancer screening?

Discussions about prostate cancer screening, including the PSA blood test, typically begin around age 50 for average-risk men. For higher-risk men, such as African American men or those with a family history, this conversation should start earlier, around age 40-45. This decision is best made in a shared discussion with Dr. Alexandre Rosen.

What are urodynamics?

Urodynamic testing is a series of tests evaluating how well your bladder and urethra store and release urine. Dr. Rosen uses these tests to understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.

What is a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is a common diagnostic procedure where our urologist, Dr. Rosen, can look directly inside your bladder and urethra. A thin tube with a camera (cystoscope) is used to check for issues like bladder tumors, stones, or sources of bleeding. It's a quick, routine office procedure.

What is robotic surgery, and what are its benefits?

Robotic surgery, like the da Vinci® system, is a minimally invasive technique where a surgeon uses a console to control robotic arms with tiny instruments. This leads to smaller incisions, less pain, reduced blood loss, and a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

What is the most common sign of testicular cancer?

The most common sign of testicular cancer is a painless lump or swelling in a testicle. Monthly self-exams are crucial for early detection, as early diagnosis is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.

What is a vasectomy?

A vasectomy is a safe, simple, and highly effective form of permanent male contraception. It's a minor surgical procedure, often performed in the office, that blocks the tubes carrying sperm. This procedure does not affect testosterone levels or sexual function.

What are the most common signs of bladder cancer?

The most common and earliest sign of bladder cancer is blood in the urine, which can be visible or microscopic. Other less common symptoms include frequent urination or pain during urination. Smoking is the single biggest risk factor for preventing bladder cancer.
