Perry Xu, MD (@perryjxu), presenting his collaborative work showing that in modern day, prostates can grow close to 5% per year in volume on serial MRI for patients with GG1 #ProstateCancer. #WCET2025 @EndourologyNm

@AmirPatelMD presents data on resectoscope sheath size (24 vs 28fr) and risk of urethral stricture and bladder neck contracture in HoLEP. Larger sheaths don’t equate to significantly increased risk of complications. #lastsurgeryfirst @amy_krambeck @NM_Urology

📍 Fetal monitoring practices not currently standardized between hospitals 📍 Ureteroscopy safe in pregnancy Great talk about a challenging population @perryjxu @amy_krambeck @NM_Urology

Ending the fellowship the way it began - with the gift of a home grown Mango from @AmirPatelMD He has been an outstanding fellow and he will be deeply missed at Northwestern.

Congratulations to Amy E. Krambeck, MD (@amy_krambeck), who has been named a Healthcare Research All-Star by Avant-garde Health!

@amy_krambeck @AmirPatelMD @EndourologyNm @NM_Urology Thanks for training him up so well @amy_krambeck!!! We are excited to steal him back to @OHSUurology and bring HoLEP to our patients

Can’t believe fellowship is nearing its end! It is an honor to learn from such an amazing mentor and surgeon. From zero HoLEPs in residency to 8 in the first day, the journey has been a wonderful ride and one I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Great gathering of the enucleation minds for Korean BBQ. Former fellows spanning the Mayo, Indiana, and Northwestern years. What a great group! @MSLee_MD @AmiPatelMD @perryjxu @DrDAgarwal @DrCharlesNottin @johanningimars
