Male #LUTS are so much more than the prostate alone. #fMRI May help elucidate CNS factors that differentiate “responders“ to non responders of #BPH surgeries @rosekhavari @NatHernandezB @h_urology @MaleHealthDoc @Uroweb @AmerUrological @NeurourolUrodyn

Precise image-guidance for BPH surgery. Aquablation good choice for 120 ml prostate in a healthy man w LUTS. <25% risk of retrograde ejaculation. Catheter out next morning. @HMethodistUro @MaleHealthDoc @DrDeanElterman @Dr_KevinZorn @NaeemBhojani7 @CCantrillMD @DrLewisKriteman

Have y’all tried Optilume for membranous ureteral strictures post-radiation for prostate cancer? Anecdotally, patients doing well to date (<1 year). Thoughts? @mccammonka @ecosterberg @WessellsHunter @nathanstarkemd @SPuro88 @DrUroRecon

Happy to have yet another FDA-approved option to offer eligible men w BPH (no IML). We are the first in Houston to do this brief 5 min procedure. #bespokeProstateHealth @HMethodistUro @SocietyofBPD finding the right treatment for the right patient because 1 👞 not fit every 🦶.

Proud of @HMethodistUro Nery Flores MD as the 1st urologist in Houston to implant Interstim X to help our patients w OAB, incontinence, and non-obstructive retention; it gives 10+ years of MRI-safe therapy without recharging. @KKseattle @rosekhavari @JulieNStewartMD @LarsMtz #isX

#TUIP is a great for PBNO. Can safely do with GL with less $ EA (extended application) fiber that allows up to 40 W vapor w min bleed. I offer for men with high BN who are interested in improving LUTS with less risk of ejac dysfxn. Good if these men want off ABs like tamsulosin.

Glorious day for our graduating UroGyn #FPMRS fellow @drshwetadesai who successfully defended her thesis on ERAS for apical prolapse! The sunbeams literally pierced the clouds over @TXMedCenter in joy! She will be an asset to the Atlanta community with Advanced Gynecology @FPMRS
