Instructional Course: Novel BPH Therapies - Review of Technologies and Practical Instruction (Itind, Urolift, Rezum, Aquablation, Stents, Aeep)
Chair: Dean Elterman, Canada
|
|
Recent advances in minimally invasive surgical procedures for BPH include UroLift, Rezum, iTind, and Aquablation. This 90 minute instructional course will focus on novel therapies and techniques for the treatment of BPH. The course will provide an overview of the technologies in terms of equipment, technical approach, and high-level review of clinical data. The faculty will provide first-hand practical instruction on best practices including patient selection, technique selection, and “tips and tricks”. The faculty will provide international experience and evidenced-based summaries of the risks and benefits of these procedures to aid with patient counselling for informed consent.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this session, attendees should:
- Understand the mechanism of action and technique for each of the novel BPH therapies.
- Select the best patients for each procedure type based upon patient and prostate characteristics.
- Gain knowledge of the clinical data supporting the use of each modality and understand best-practice technique for each modality based upon the literature and expert opinion.
- Gain an appreciation for the challenges encountered and troubleshooting for each technology and appreciate the "tips & tricks" provided by the experts for performing these novel BPH therapies

Instructional Course: Transition from Transrectal to Transperineal Prostate Biopsy Under Local Anaesthesia in Your Clinic: A Crash Course
Chair: Peter Chiu, Hong Kong
|
|
Around the world, transrectal prostate biopsy is gradually being replaced by transperineal (TP) biopsy due to significantly less septic complications. However, traditional TP biopsy is usually done under general or spinal anaesthesia and is associated with higher anaesthetic risk and extra resources. TP biopsy under local anaesthesia (LA) has been proven to be well tolerated. This course focuses on the basics of TP biopsy under LA and the various means that we can perform systematic and MRI-guided TP biopsies. This serves to empower the participants to transform from TR to TP route of prostate biopsy under LA.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this session, attendees should:
- Understand the benefits of transperineal prostate biopsy.
- Acquire the principles of local anaesthesia in transperineal prostate biopsy .
- nderstand the various ways and platforms to perform systematic and MRI-guided targeted transperineal prostate biopsy

Instructional Course: Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP): Challenges and Controversies
Chair: Liliya Tryfounyk, Ukraine
|
|
POP management options can potentially include observation,conservative,and surgical options.Surgical repair involve obliterative and reconstructive procedures. Each of these has its own risks and benefits. Many urologists,urogynecologists,and pelvicreconstructive surgeons are still unaware of,or less familiar with,the role,ease and reproducibility of such treatment options for POP and associated problems. There are specific areas of POP that the literature is sparse and supported by weak evidence,especially regarding their respective best management options. Attendees should be able to identify these and foster research on them. Evidence-based guidelines supported by multi-institutional RCTs must be encouraged and become available as soon as possible for all surgeons interested in pelvic reconstruction.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this session attendees should:
- Understand the less known facts about pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and its associated problems (e.g., urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, etc.)
- To be familiar with the conservative management and the surgical techniques of POP repair
- To understand the challenges and controversies associated with this prevalent topic.
- To decide which treatment serves best an individual patient based on the compartments involved, extent of prolapse, medical and surgical comorbidities, risks of treatment, and shared decision-making involving the patient.
- To learn (and to review) the pertinent diagnostic workup of POP, including urodynamics, imaging studies, etc.

Instructional Course: How Can I Achieve 93% Success During ESWL
Chair: Kah Ann Git, Malaysia
|
|
ESWL was developed by using fluoroscopy, so most of our masters do not use ultrasound for localization and real time treatment tracking in adults and pediatric patients. Today, when ALARA principles are globally accepted for endourological procedures, we need to re-think the value of the ultrasound in our daily practice. Ultrasound Guided SWL have shown the same results as fluoroscopic procedures with benefits for patients and the working team. In summary, for renal and upper ureteral stones in adults an pediatric patients, ultrasound should be part of every day ESWL cases.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this session, attendees should:
- Understand how technology influence ESWL outcome.
- Overcome the fear of using ultrasound guided ESWL and eventually capable of achieving good ESWL results
- Obtain knowledge of some fine techniques to improve SWL outcome.
- Experience some examples to gain tips and tricks to take home to practice ultrasound guided ESWL

Instructional Course: Advanced Ureteroscopy: Solving Complex Problems
Chair: Michael Grasso, United States
|
|
This course is designed for the experienced endoscopist who wished to perform advanced ureteroscopic procedures including complex stone presentations, multimodality therapies for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma, and management strategies for the obstructed upper urinary tract. The internationally recognized faculty with emphasize pre-operative preparations, various imaging modalities, evolving instrumentation and accessories, and post operative care. Strategies to increase efficiency while minimizing complications will be emphasized. Management strategies addressing peri-operative complications will also be presented.

Instructional Course: Principles of Minimally Invasive Partial Nephrectomy
Chair: Gonzalo Vitagliano, Argentina
|
|
This session aims to provide safe and efficient practices in minimally invasive partial nephrectomy across SIU members. Our main target audience are urologists with limited experience performing these procedures. Disparities in practice patterns of minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (MIPN) exist across the globe. Furthermore, these procedures present a significant initial learning curve. Therefore, there is a need for practice standardization. In this course, SIU members will learn the necessary principles to perform a safe and efficient laparoscopic or robotic-assisted partial nephrectomies. During this session, the specific procedural details will be shared through a thoughtful step-by-step manner.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this session, attendees should be able to:
- Perform their first MIPN an better their surgical practice by standardizing their minimally invasive partial nephrectomies.
- Understand principles of good and safe minimally invasive partial nephrectomy will allow participants to advance their surgical and oncologic practice.
