title: [Surgical statistics of the Department of Urology, Isesaki Municipal Hospital during a five-year period (June 1998-May 2003)].
abstract: We reviewed the surgical statistics of the Department of Urology, Isesaki Municipal Hospital between June 1998 and May 2003. A total of 1940 surgeries were performed. These consisted of 399 surgeries on the kidney, adrenal, and pelvis, 212 on the ureter, 433 on the bladder, 256 on the prostate, 149 on the urethra and the penis, 192 on the scrotum, 255 on the arteriovenous fistula and CAPD. In September 2003, a screening program for prostate cancer was started, and the number of prostate biopsies and total prostatectomies increased. As the adaptation of many procedures to laparoscopy expanded, the number of laparoscopic surgeries increased.
