• Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis: Chronic bacterial prostatitis is a serious condition requiring proactive management to minimize long-term impact on urinary health and overall well-being. Early detection is key.
• Enlarged Prostate (BPH): Early detection of an enlarged prostate through regular screenings and doctor visits helps minimize future problems like urinary retention and bladder stones.
• Acute Cystitis: Preventing acute cystitis involves understanding your risk factors, like infrequent urination or poor hygiene, and taking proactive steps to reduce your chances of developing this uncomfortable and potentially serious infection.
• Chronic Kidney Disease Stage III: Managing Chronic Kidney Disease Stage III through diet, medication, and regular monitoring can significantly reduce the risk of needing dialysis or a kidney transplant in the future.

Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. Leonardo Moros offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

• Orchiectomy: In cases of testicular trauma, an orchiectomy could be necessary to prevent further complications and pain in the affected area.
• Nephrectomy with Robotic Assist: Taking proactive steps for kidney health, this surgery uses robotic assistance for precise kidney removal when necessary for treatment of cancer, injury or infection, helping prevent related complications.
• Urethral Dilation: Urethral dilation is a procedure that can widen a narrowed urethra, improving urinary flow and helping prevent future urinary tract infections or complications.
• Augmentation Cystoplasty: If you experience frequent urinary tract infections or have a neurogenic bladder, augmentation cystoplasty might be suggested to improve your bladder's ability to store and empty urine effectively.
• Urinary Stone Removal (Litholapaxy): Take control of your urinary health: litholapaxy effectively eliminates kidney stones, reducing the risk of infections and blockages.
• Resection of Bladder Neck: To address urinary symptoms and prevent further complications, a bladder neck resection surgically improves the flow of urine from your bladder.
• Uroflowmetry: Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive screening tool that helps identify and potentially prevent serious urinary problems, allowing for timely intervention.
• Bladder Surgery: Bladder surgery offers a proactive approach to treating various bladder conditions, helping to improve symptoms and prevent more serious problems.
• Lithotripsy: Lithotripsy uses shock waves to break up kidney stones, helping prevent complications like infections or blockages.
• Prostate Cancer Screening Exam (DRE): Protecting your future starts with proactive steps, and a DRE is a vital part of this plan, helping find prostate cancer at a stage when it's often most treatable.
• Prostate Biopsy: A prostate biopsy is a procedure that helps detect prostate cancer early, when treatment is most effective.
• Nephrectomy: To address certain kidney conditions and potentially prevent life-threatening consequences, a nephrectomy may be recommended as a surgical solution.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Leonardo Moros:

What is a Urologist?

Dr. Moros 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. However, 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. Moros.

I have been diagnosed with a kidney stone. Will I need surgery?

Most small kidney stones can pass naturally with increased fluids and pain management. For larger stones or those causing significant issues, Dr. Moros can utilize minimally invasive procedures like shock wave lithotripsy or ureteroscopy to effectively remove the stone.

What are the most common signs of bladder cancer?

The most common and earliest sign of bladder cancer is blood in the urine (hematuria), 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 prevention.

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 young men, as early detection is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by a sudden, frequent, and urgent need to urinate, which can be difficult to control and may lead to leakage. It's a common condition, and Dr. Moros can offer many effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

What is robotic surgery, and what are its benefits?

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

What are urodynamics?

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