Is antibiotic prophylaxis warranted in hypospadias repairs?

Hypospadias repair is a common paediatric urological procedure. Complication rates following hypospadias repair are variable (ranging from 5–10% for distal hypospadias repairs and as high as 32–70% for proximal repairs). Limiting surgical site infections by minimising infection through antibiotic prophylaxis...

Multiparametric MRI with targeted-only biopsy – a new standard?

In this issue of European Urology, Kasivisvanathan et al. present a meta-analysis of two randomised trials comparing prebiopsy MRI with targeted biopsy (TBx) alone versus standard transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUS-Bx) in biopsy-naïve men at risk of prostate cancer. Their findings...

The case against omitting systematic biopsy in younger men

In this issue of European Urology, Al-Monajjed et al. report findings from the PROBASE trial, which evaluated prostate cancer (PC) detection in men aged 45–50 years with PSA ≥3ng/ml using both MRI-targeted biopsy (TBx) and systematic biopsy (SBx). Among 525...

Evelina Paediatric Urodynamics Course 2025

This two day face to face course will start by covering normal childhood bladder and bowel anatomy and function along with an outline of Bladder Bowel dysfunction (BBD). The bulk of the course will cover urodynamic assessment of BBD both with non-invasive strategies such as Diaries, Uroflowmetry (together with use of EMG) and ultrasound scanning, and invasive urodynamics to include videourodynamics and ambulatory urodynamics. Practical demonstration along with work-shop scenarios will be provided along with case studies. We will not concentrate much on treatment but will provide demonstration of superficial neuromodulation such as TENS and the principles/practice of Biofeedback treatment.

Demanding cases or nightmares in endourology? Jan/Feb 2017

COVID-19: the impact on urology so far

“How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.” Florence Nightingale Since 31 December 2019 when a cluster of pneumonia cases with an unknown cause were first referred to the WHO Country Office in China, there has been...

Dogs and humans share a bladder cancer biomarker: a new discovery that opens doors for early detection and treatment

A new scientific study has identified a new molecular biomarker that could help doctors detect aggressive early-stage bladder cancer, such as high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), in both dogs and humans. This discovery advances our knowledge of how aggressive...

Inpatient care of patients with established spinal cord injury - what a general urologist needs to know

Introduction Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating, life-changing condition, which is currently irreversible. Depending on the level of the spinal cord affected (and whether the lesion is complete or incomplete), patients may subsequently develop reduced voluntary motor function, sensory...

Men with a susceptibility to prostate cancer: implications of family history in PCa risk-prediction

Incorporation of family history (FH) status into prostate cancer (PCa) risk stratification has the potential to underpin many aspects of PCa care. This group of men presents a unique challenge in early cancer detection, particularly given that most men without...
