Robotic Urology
This represents a well written and comprehensive tome covering virtually all aspects of kidney, bladder and prostate surgery. The opening chapters deal well with aspects relating to robotic anaesthesia, training and education which I suspect even the most experienced of...Recent developments in bladder cancer
There have been some exciting developments in bladder cancer over the last few years. Immunotherapy has prolonged survival in a proportion of patients with metastatic disease, with sustained efficacy in some. Advances in genetic analysis and molecular subtyping make personalised...
Assessing resolution of isolated hydronephrosis – is APPD superior to the SFU system?
Antenatal scanning detects urinary tract dilatation in 1-5% of pregnancies. Isolated hydronephrosis (i.e., that not due to secondary dilatation e.g. bladder dysfunction) is known to resolve or improve in most; some patients may, however, require intervention through deterioration of obstruction...
Urinary Stones – Medical and Surgical Management
This book is nicely adapted to cover both the medical and surgical management of urinary stone disease. Those chapters dealing with the surgical management of stone disease are dealt with unsurprisingly well – delivered with a relaxed and conversational prose...Ejaculatory dysfunction – too swift, too slow and the no-show
Timing is everything.’ Although an expression most frequently linked to comedy, timing also seems just as critical in the business of sexual climax. Indeed, many men worry about ejaculating. Too soon is embarrassing. Too slow is frustrating. And not ejaculating...Prostate Cancer Vaccine Research Launched in Surrey
In September 2025, The Prostate Project, a Guildford-based volunteer-led charity, will launch a £250,000 campaign to raise funds for a prostate cancer research project widely anticipated to be ‘game-changing’. Work has begun to develop a vaccine to prevent the return...South Thames Paediatric Network: Torsion Wetlab
The half day study day will include a presentation covering the principles and evidence-based practice with the remainder of the day practical sessions of the safe assessment and surgery in the child with acute scrotum. I aims to enable attendees to understand the pathologies present, the options, the investigations and what operation to do. The wetlab will run twice in the day. You will only need to book one session: Morning Wetlab 09:00-12:30 Afternoon Wetlab 13:30-17:00
Comparative effectiveness of radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy in prostate cancer
Despite prostate cancer being one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers worldwide, there remains a need for high-quality evidence regarding the optimal treatment choice. In this large population-based cohort study, using the PCBaSe Sweden dataset, Sooriakumaran and colleagues identified patients...What’s new in post prostatectomy incontinence?
With an ageing population, the number of men being diagnosed with prostate cancer each year is steadily rising. With more specific investigations, such as multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MpMRI) and transperineal biopsies, the number of cases diagnosed at an earlier...Indeterminate renal lesions – a pragmatic imaging approach
The incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the UK has increased steadily over the last two decades, largely driven by the increasing use of abdominal imaging and the incidental detection of small renal lesions [1]. The majority of incidental...
Lichen sclerosus and isolated bulbar urethral stricture disease
The incidence of urethral stricture in men with lichen sclerosus (LS) has been reported to be between 4.8% and 14%. LS limited to the glans and urethral meatus can be treated with acceptable outcomes; however, more extensive urethral disease requires...
