Participation in the American Urological Association Annual Meeting

This year the Annual congress of the American Urological Association, that was going to take place in Washington DC has been cancelled.

Instead, all scientific works that were going to be presented there, will be published online.

This year we boosted our scientific activities, and the results are starting to be visible. We present 4 abstracts.

One comparing the En bloc endoscopic enucleation of the prostate with early apical liberation with GreenLight and Holmium lasers.

Another video-abstract on Aquablation

Another one on the results of the iTIND device for the treatment of LUTS sugestive of benign prostatic obstruction.

And finally, the work that makes me proudest, that has also been accepted for publication in the Journal of Urology, and the result of the hard work of the group, but specifically due to the stubbornness of my colleagues Dr. Moisés Rodriguez Socarrás and Dr. Juan Gómez Rivas. It is our protocol for the diagnosis of prostate cancer combining microultrasound (ExactVU system) and transperineal fusion biopsies (Biopsee system).

The coronavirus has brought us many bad things. But it has pushed us to step forward in the digital world. I think future medical congresses will no longer be as in the past. More and more, medical training and scientific exchange will take place online.
