Hi all, during my last match in Brisbane I had a small problem on a muscle that as you know made me worried. Once I got to Melbourne I have had the chance to make an MRI and I have micro tear on a muscle, not in the same part where I had the injury and that’s good news. Right

We hear a lot about the learning curve for HoLEP, but systematic approach to teaching residents will greatly expand access for men who need it. Proud of @AndrewGardeck PGY2 for his dedication to learning! @Uro_Res @UroResidency @HMethodistUro @TxUrological @SocietyofBPD

@drjkaouk @CleClinicUro SP Transvesical may have a minimal advantage, but there was something wrong with the multiport protocol if 88% required opioids on discharge and 70% stayed for over 24h.

My short thoughts: it's a good idea, yes, and possibly. My longer thoughts (a 🧵): 1. Surgeons are entitled to opinions, but I have been disappointed in the disrespectful way that some of those thoughts have been expressed. #NoToRacism #OperateWithRespect 🤨
What do you think @LiangRhea? Does this effectively improve equity of access, or is it targeting the wrong end of healthcare? #SDOH

@gordonhmuir In my opinion the main drive to care so much about antegrade ejaculation preservation does not come from patients “victims” of RE after BPH surgery, but from a flourishing multimillion industry of MIT devices influencing us.
