Programme Description:

The course will include practical demonstration by select faculty of key aspects of ultrasound imaging of the upper and lower urinary tracts. This will be followed by hands-on training for participants (up to 5 per USG machine), moderated by the faculty.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the workshop, the participants should be able to

• Operate an USG machine
• Recall the basics of USG imaging for: hydronephrosis, dilated ureters, stones, cysts, renal masses, bladder examination, PVR, bladder volume, wall thickness, masses and stones, prostate evaluation, benign enlargement
• Recognize the technique for conducting a transrectal USG for diagnosing benign enlargement of prostate, hypoechoic nodules, prostatic calculi, prostatic cysts, prostatic abscess, dilated SV/ejaculatory duct
• Detail how to make a clinically acceptable USG report
• Recognize the technique for performing a transrectal prostate biopsy under USG guidance
• Recall the basics of USG Doppler

Learning Objectives:

Following the educational activity, attendees will be able to:

• Update knowledge of recent developments in equipment and technique for the minimally invasive and surgical management of urologic diseases, based on live and pre-recorded surgical demonstrations.
• Acknowledge the role of open, laparoscopic, and robotic-assisted surgical procedures in uro-oncology and reconstructive urology, with respect to new systems, instrumentation, and techniques.
• Summarize practical knowledge of instrumentation and techniques for the endourologic treatment of upper and lower urinary tract conditions.
• Recognize the role of focal therapy approaches in uro-oncology.
• Recall perioperative considerations for optimizing urologic surgery outcomes, based on treatment guidelines and expert opinion.

The standard management of patients with MIBC is represented by neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy or chemoradiation. However, cystectomy and radical RT are associated with significant morbidity and quality of life (QoL) implications. 

Groundbreaking advances have been made in systemic therapy, making complete response to neoadjuvant treatment more frequent and treatment better tolerated and feasible. An increasing number of patients who have a remarkable response are questioning the indications to radical surgery. Critical questions are the following: can deep responders to systemic therapy keep their bladders intact?

Can neoadjuvant window of opportunity result in a bladder-sparing opportunity?

Learning Objectives

At the end of this course, attendees should:

• Increase their knowledge and the awareness on the therapeutic options to discuss with the patients once they refuse to undergo RC after neoadjuvant therapy
• Improve their flexibility to meet the patients' needs when questioning the role of radical surgery of the bladder.
• Learn how clinicians can now monitor the disease response to treatment in daily practice.
• Learn when and how a bladder-sparing approach is feasible and safe for the patients at the end of neoadjuvant therapy.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this session, attendees should be able to:

• Develop a foundational understanding of AI and its various applications in urology, including education, training, and precision medicine.
• Explore the potential of AI to enhance therapeutic approaches and patient care outcomes in uro-oncology and other urological fields.
• Identify the challenges, legal considerations, and practical implications of integrating AI into urological practices.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session, attendees should be able to

• Provide comprehensive counseling on the pros and cons of surveillance versus adjuvant therapy for stage I GCT
• Provide comprehensive counseling on the pros and cons of various available treatment options for stage II seminoma
• Understand limitations and future perspective regarding current and future GCT-biomarkers
• Understand the multidisciplinary management of GCT patients

Learning objectives:

At the end of this session, attendees will:

• Learn the modern preoperative and intraoperative approach to surgery for kidney Cancer.
• Have an update on the latest technologies available for renal surgery.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this session, attendees should be able to understand:

• the diagnostic and therapeutic role of en-bloc resection and enhanced assessments during TURBT in bladder cancer;
• the utility of urinary cytology and biomarkers to support diagnosis, prognosis and surveillance;
• the contemporary and future role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) the management of NMIBC. 

ESWL have been around since 1980 to treat renal calculi and most centres have at least one lithotripter. However, the usage is on a decline with the rising popularity of RIRS and PCNL, compromising the ESWL return of investment. We hope to show ways to maximize the usage of the lithotripter you have and still produce the same results as other modalities of stone treatment. We also hope to illustrate techniques to improve your ESWL outcomes in terms of stone free rates and safety.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session, attendees should be able to:

• Apply ESWL treatment in different stone scenario maximizing its usage           
• Apply and improve the technique of ultrasound-guided ESWL
• Acquire the knowledge to improve the success of ESWL treatment     
• Appreciate the advantages and maximize the usage of the lithotripter

Open to SIU Active and Senior Members

Learning Objectives

After this session, participants would have a better understanding of:

• The practical relevance of reducing hormone levels in ageing men,
• The role of varicocele repair in special situations like azoospermia, normozoospermia and orchalgia,
• Utility of advanced semen tests like ROS measurement.

NMIBC is a common and high burden bladder cancer state and an unmet need exists to advance treatments and maintain quality of life of patients worldwide. The IBCG Masterclass in NMIBC will review the risk classification of NMIBC, its nuances and hoe to select patients for the right approach and go over the novel treatments and strategies to allow bladder preservation for BCG-unresponsive NMIBC. We will put the discussion into context with case-based discussion with our global panelists.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session, attendees should be able to:

• Apply risk classification of NMIBC and how to select patients for the most appropriate treatment.
• Know about the latest advances in management of BCG unresponsive NMIBC with bladder sparing options.
• Manage toxicities of available treatments.
• Learn about treatment sequencing and maximizing the available options based on access and cost.

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 pelvic reconstructive 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.
