The USC Institute of Urology specializes in the most advanced treatments for urologic cancers, having one of the most experienced teams anywhere.

USC urologists are recognized world leaders in radical cystectomy and continent diversion for bladder cancer and laparoscopic and robotic kidney-sparing surgery for kidney cancer. Our physicians have also pioneered many techniques in laparoscopic/robotic prostatectomy for prostate cancer.

USC’s pediatric urologists comprise one of the most experienced teams in the country. Practicing at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, our physicians offer the complete range of straight-forward and advanced open and minimally invasive urologic procedures.

As one of the premiere kidney transplantation teams in Southern California, our urologists were the first in the world to perform a new kidney donation surgery through the belly button in a virtually scar-free manner.
