Endourology Society Day will be held on Sunday, May 17th and will include 3 scientific programs. Our Engineering and Urology Society Session will focus on Next Generation Endourology: Technology, Innovation and Clinical Integration. This year’s Focal Therapy Society program “Focal Therapy in 2026: From Patient Selection to Outcomes” reflects the progress in the field of focal therapy, which has quickly become an established part of urologic care. Lastly, this year’s Society of Urologic Robotic Surgeons (SURS) program features a distinguished faculty of international leaders and rising stars, brought together to provide practical insights and diverse perspectives on the latest advancements in robotic surgery in urology.
Learning Objectives:
1. Select and optimize contemporary laser platforms and settings to match stone characteristics and anatomy.
2. Choose and deploy novel ureteroscopes, including small-caliber, single-use devices, and built-in suctioning capability based on patient and procedural factors.
3. Integrate flexible suction access sheaths to improve fragment clearance and control intrarenal pressure.
4. Perform fluoroless ureteroscopy and minimalist ureteroscopy, which omits the need for use of guidewires, excessive irrigation and potentially stent deployment.
5. Compare and contrast a wide range of minimally invasive techniques in the diagnosis, and management of benign prostatic enlargement, including novel laser enucleation technologies, water vaporization techniques and state of the art urethral stenting technologies.
