@LauraBukavinaMD Lol why were they allowed to conjecture about complex cases being first as a caveat rather than the main finding. Need data on last case outcomes stratied by surgeons needing to get to a kids sports game or not.

everyone knows you do your toughest case first .. even when you adjust for "complexity" the surgeon knows what case goes first so results are not surprising .. it is not the timing of the day it is the surgeons Choice of who goes first and for what reasons

And just like that, an era ended. Neoadj chemo before cystectomy is now a historical footnote #ev304 #keynoteb15 #ASCO26

@NCSAUA Board Member Dr. James Brown and the section's Early Career Investigators Showcase nominees @Dr_i_pp_olito and @HitenDPatel selected for presentation at #AUA26.

New in our partnership with @DGlaucomflecken: the KEYNOTE-905 trial evaluated enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab as perioperative therapy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who were ineligible to receive cisplatin. Read the full study for free: nej.md/DrG40

#AUA26 is just 4 days away! @NorthwesternMed Urology will be strongly represented at this year’s Annual Meeting by our faculty, residents, fellows, and medical students. We’re excited to share our work—and to connect with colleagues from around the world. Meet our representatives and follow along for conference updates!

@BradGillMD @MayoUrology @OhioUroSociety @AmerUrological @CleClinicUro Hats off to you, Mr. President, for a terrific meeting with great energy and dialogue 👏 @OhioUroSociety does it right! #OUS2026

Privileged to have friend & colleague @kvnkoo from @MayoUrology join @OhioUroSociety tonight as political / advocacy keynote speaker. Huge motivation & essential insights from him as chair of @AmerUrological Federal Advocacy Committee, and his many many other roles!

We compared MRI to TRUS but should have tried to include DRE (TRUS underestimates, PSAD not useful for glands over 80cc). pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36152871/

The @NorthwesternMed Urology Department is celebrating 125 years of excellence! As we celebrate this historic anniversary, watch as we honor pioneers in the field and reflect on just some of the achievements that exemplify our dedication to better urology. #NMBetter

📰New in @UrolOncol! 💡Highlights: 1⃣Presence of EPE on MRI predicted prostatectomy outcomes 2⃣Combined biopsy showed the highest rate of grade concordance with prostatectomy 3⃣Our model for adverse surgical pat did not outperform existing nomograms 🔗bit.ly/4kGCuoS
