Annual Congress of the Spanish Urological Association

This year the National Urology Congress took place in Gijón, Asturias. My role in the congress was to lecture the residents with a talk entitled "Endoscopic Enucleation of the Prostate, the new treatment of choice of BPH".

I also contributed with three posters, that were presented by my colleague and friend Dr. Enrique Rijo. 

But without doubt, the most beautiful moment in the congress was the award from the Spanish Urological Association of the Francisco Diaz Medal to Dr. Richard Gaston. This is the highest recognition the Spanish Urological Association gives to urologists that contribute significantly to spanish urology.

It was a true honor to accompany him in such an important moment. Dr. Gaston confessed that he was truly moved by this and that he had donated the economic prize to a humanitarian organization. He is a great man and an amazing surgeon. My master and friend, Richard. Congratulations!

And with the national congress the academic year comes to an end, although we still have to work the rest of june and july before the summer holiday comes.
