Specialization & Focus

Boylu treats urological cancers using robotic and laparoscopic techniques. This approach helps patients recover through smaller incisions and precision technology. He also treats conditions such as prostatic hyperplasia, urolithiasis, and polycystic kidney disease. Within reproductive medicine, he treats issues like azoospermia, Peyronie's disease, and varicocele.

He uses endourology – a surgical method using small cameras and instruments inserted into the urinary tract. This provides minimally invasive options for various urinary disorders. These methods avoid the need for large traditional incisions during surgery.
