Profile
Dr. Y. M. Prashanth is a consultant urologist at KIMS Secunderabad with a broad surgical scope spanning laser prostate surgery, kidney stone endourology, uro-oncology, robotic surgery, and kidney transplantation. His involvement in the KIMS Paediatric Renal Centre — listed alongside the paediatric nephrology team — reflects a surgical breadth that includes the specific technical challenges of paediatric urology: small-calibre endoscopy, congenital abnormality surgery, and the particular complexities of renal transplantation in low-weight children.
In the BPH programme, Dr. Prashanth contributes to both HoLEP and TURP — the gold standard and the proven standard for prostate enucleation and resection respectively. In the uro-oncology programme, he participates in the multidisciplinary tumour board review of prostate, kidney, and bladder cancer cases, and is involved in the robotic surgical programme using the Da Vinci Xi and X platforms.
