This weekend we had a new course on En bloc HoLEP. We had urologists visiting from several countries for this training session. The participants came from Mexico, Greece, Palestine, Perú and Chile. We focused on the technical aspects of the en bloc technique using the Holmium laser. We discussed the nuances of the procedure and how to maintain mucosal preservation during the dissection. The group was engaged throughout the training period. I look forward to seeing how they implement these techniques in their own centers. This continues our work on teaching HoLEP internationally.

I am starting a two-day course on En Bloc HoLEP in Guadalajara, Mexico. The course is organized in collaboration with @EndouroPaco, Richard Wolf GmbH, Quanta System, and ICUAurologia.

We will focus on the practical application of the En Bloc technique using the Quanta System laser. Participants will learn the specific steps of enucleation and morcellation. The training covers surgical details and laser settings required for this approach. I will be present throughout the two days to demonstrate the procedure and debate with other experts from the regionn. This session allows urologists to observe the method directly in the operating room. The schedule includes both theory and observed advanced techniques practical observation.

Dr. Wilmer Soliz spent three months with us at ICUAurologia and Hill Clinic. He has now returned to Buenos Aires. During this period, he worked alongside our team. Dr. Norberto Bernardo was also involved in the coordination. Dr. Soliz is an excellent urologist.

We maintained professional contact throughout his stay. I consider him a new friend. The visit proceeded without issues. He is practicing independently again now. The collaboration ended successfully. We will continue to be in touch!

This was the second day of the Robotic HoLEP course held at Hill Clinic. Dr. Georgiev performed a robotic HoLEP case during the session. The procedure concluded successfully.

I acknowledge the support from Andromeda Surg, Quanta System, Richard Wolf GmbH, Hill Clinic and ICUA for the equipment and organization. The technical execution during the live case was precise.

The focus remained on robotic enucleation techniques throughout the session. We observed the surgical steps in real-time. This training continues to advance the standard of care for BPH patients. The participants observed the excellent ongoing progress with this concept.

I successfully completed the first Robotic HoLEP case in Europe at Hill Clinic today. This procedure follows the initial cases performed worldwide in Chile. The surgery utilized the Quanta System laser and Richard Wolf GmbH instruments. I collaborated with the Andromeda Surgical team during the operation. The procedure was completed without intraoperative complications. The team worked together efficiently. We are documenting the technical aspects for the ongoing clinical trial. The operation was performed under general anesthesia. This marks the first European application of this specific robotic configuration.
