Proud to have chaired the assessment with @DinkSmit and Dr. Kirkeby for this talented young man’s PhD @CFuglesangSJ on sperm retrieval. Kudos to @JSnksen @MikkelFode and their team. #danishurologymovingforward

[European Association of Urology (EAU) @Uroweb]

Thank you all for attending our first virtual Annual EAU Congress!

Come join the plenary testis cancer and surgical Andrology session in 15 min at virtual #EAU20

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

@faysal_a_yafi Welcome @SKWilson10; Thank you for moderating tonights case discussions at the Dutch implanters round table meeting! Many thanks to both you for your great lectures and tips&tricks

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Thanks #EAU19 for programming #oncoTESE in azoospermic patients with testicular cancer. I hope these take home messages will inspire urologists to organise their clinics and identify men who will benefit! @MikkelFode @MaartenAlbersen @Uroweb

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Thanks #EAU19 for catching up with colleagues to discuss were #andrology is heading. We need clarification of sperm extraction technique, definition of positive sperm retrieval and live birth rates to consent patients for salvage #mTESE @MikkelFode @MaartenAlbersen @Uroweb

@MikkelFode @jimdupree4 @MaartenAlbersen @drserefoglu @VaibhavModgil @PVerze @Paolo_Capog @BahceciSaglik I don’t recommend antioxidants either but stick to lifestyle advices: impopular among patients...but nutritional status, cessation of smoking and being sedentary may be as “effective” as antioxidants.

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Antioxidant treatment for #maleinfertility is a million dollar industry; but evidence for live birth rate improvement is lacking. Adverse effect probably low but not clarified #EAU19 @MikkelFode @PVerze @Paolo_Capog @MaartenAlbersen

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

@KariTikkinen @Uroweb @bmj_latest @PaulGlasziou @VPrasadMDMPH @amchelsinki @iona_heath @fgodlee @MikkelFode @AllenFrancesMD Completely agree

[Mark Johnson @urojohno]

Great talk about the need for sperm banking +/- oncoTESE in men with azoospermia and Testicular Cancer #EAU19

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Prof Koppa summarises the “evidence” for using testicular sperm in previous failed ICSI with ejaculated sperm concludes not to touch the testis. Surprisingly, the audience raise hands for TESE. We need more evidence to select patients who may benefit @MikkelFode #EAU19

[Paolo Capogrosso @Paolo_Capog]

Come and join the discussion in Green room 10 on #Maleinfertility update at 10.30 #EAU19 @MikkelFode @PaoloVerze @DinkSmit

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

#EAU19 great overview on fertility preservation in pre-and postpubertal cancer patients by @CFuglesangSJ Even though SSC preservation is experimental, sperm banking may fail and patients may decline, counselling is mandatory! @JSnksen

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Aleksander Giwercman concludes that hypogonadism in testicular cancer survivors is a riskfactor for morbidity. TRT is underused but question remains if TRT will alleviate CV risks #EAU19 @CFuglesangSJ @MaartenAlbersen @MikkelFode

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

@UCLHinfertility @Uroweb @uclh Thanks Pippa, totally agree: we should standardise sperm retrieval technique and define outcome

[Mikkel Fode @MikkelFode]

A definite cure is the #1 desire of men with #erectiledysfunction. This indicates that we should persue regenerative options but also opens the gates for expensive, non-proven "treatments" being pushed on frustrated men #EAU19 @MaartenAlbersen

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Should we extent indications for varicocelectomy? Minhas sums up the evidence, we need more but: yes #EAU19 @MikkelFode @CFuglesangSJ @drserefoglu

[Marij Dinkelman-Smit @DinkSmit]

Now in room 3 Green Area @DohleG state of the art lecture on hypogonadism...main cause: obesity #EAU19 main effect of TRT on severe hypogonadism...sexual function improvement
