What an honour to visit VirtuosoSurgical & try out the novel transurethral robotic system! Feel proud to have performed en bloc resection smoothly at my 1st attempt. Beyond ERBT, I think it will open up a brand new arena for novel surgical approaches in the future. Excited about it!

Registration is now open for the 3rd annual advances in GU robotic reconstruction course NM Urology ! Free course for those interested in complex robotic recon. Looking forward to sharing data, novel techniques, tips/tricks with Lee Zhao, Daniel D Eun MD, Jill C. Buckley!

Extraordinarily valuable data on 6 vs 24 mo ADT with salvage RT in RADICALS. Definitive MFS advantage at expense of added toxicity Like many trials, answers and creates many questions ⁦Chris Parker⁩ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Types of urology papers, I can’t stop laughing 😂…

ICYMI: This paper from Jane K Nguyen MD PhD and Jesse McKenney on rethinking Gleason grading is a really big deal. Splitting all patterns into "favorable" and "unfavorable" amounts to the best biomarker I think I've ever seen for #prostatecancer.

Proton results = IMRT, just has better marketing. If someone tells me that proton spares everything around the prostate I will make them watch videos of my post-proton salvage prostatectomies. Good luck identifying the prostate in the middle of all the pale fascia and muscle

Work still found me while on vacation in Croatia

Was my unfortunate turn to have to use the hydrogen peroxide trick to break up an organized clot during a clot evac and it worked great! Thanks for the tip Jonathan Pavlinec! I used one capful of H2O2 in 1 L of NSS while irrigating with a Toomey via the resectoscope with the inflow on.
