[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Excited to share our latest publication with @SpringerNature in @jrobotsurg-a simple study challenging long-standing dogma that everyone needs a catheter. We are now building on this work with a similar project in male patients. @HUMCUrology @jiwhae_choi

@mdstifelman @HUMCUrology @AmerUrological Amazing!!

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Having different tools in the toolbox is key to success—and most importantly, to achieving the best outcomes for patients. Glad to see so many young rising stars working with the SP robot. As the saying goes: “You can’t always follow guidelines if you want to innovate.”

[Ram Pathak, M.D. @RamPathakMD]

4 different approaches to RARP: SP transvesical, SP extraperitoneal, MP Retzius sparing, MP traditional.

@aghazimd @LiMingSu1 @jdhdavis

The answer: need to learn either TV or Retzius sparing AND standard approach for aggressive cancers.
Prostatectomy is not one-size fits all

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Heading home from #AUA26 after catching up with friends and colleagues, sharing ideas, and learning a few new things along the way. The best session by far, in my opinion, was the robotic theater — excellently managed by @mdstifelman. 👏 @AmerUrological @HUMCUrology

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Honored to continue our annual tradition of hosting the Bangladesh Urological Association surgeons during the AUA Convention lunch event. Thanks to @SimplyUroMD and @RoboUroMD @m_dreschermd @LarryHouMD for joining. @HUMCUrology @AmerUrological 🇧🇩🇺🇸

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@jdhdavis @Urodoc46 @LambAlastair @ricautor @pjscharlesworth @nitheshranasin1 @mdstifelman @KGUROmd @jeanjuniorj @allaf_mo @AmerUrological Agree especially the presenter was asked and clinical situation was explained….pt had significant obstructing symptoms due to large median lobe

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

AUA2026 robotic theater prostate session full capacity and standing, honored to moderate with distinguished panel, great discussions

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@DrTanWP @jimhumd @UrologyMSK Well said. The truth is always in the details.

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Just arrived in D.C. for #AUA2026 @AmerUrological. Excited to reconnect with colleagues and friends. Below are the program sessions I contributed to. Don’t miss the SP robotic cystectomy with Indiana pouch, to our knowledge is the first ever reported. @HUMCUrology @SimplyUroMD

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Really proud of what this team accomplished @HUMCUrology . Grateful to have played a meaningful part alongside such talented people. When you have the contents, commitment, enthusiasm, the right support, and everyone contributing their strengths… these are the results.

[Michael Stifelman @mdstifelman]

Taking home the gold of most abstracts presented at AUA @HUMCUrology could not be more proud of the entire team! Secret weapon @jakeOUro

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@DrDadBuilder @EKokush @IntuitiveSurg Thank You @DrDadBuilder

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

We’re proud to have you at @HUMCUrology. There’s nothing more rewarding than making a meaningful impact on a young mind and watching that potential flourish. This is just the beginning — many great things are ahead. Strong work, @EKokush! @AmerUrological

[Emily Kokush, MD @EKokush]

In 2017, a 1st yr college student, I shadowed Dr. Ahmed & watched my 1st RALP. He was always a great teacher (even to premed students) & was my first intro to urology.

Today, Dr. Ahmed taught me, a 1st yr resident, robotics techniques for the same case. This is living the dream!

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@mdstifelman @UroOncologist Yes indeed we also use this technique for level 1 and level 2 IVC thrombus but beyond those not ideal.

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

STEP for BPH: effective for any prostate size or shape, even with an atonic bladder.Heals by primary intention—fast symptoms relief—with no early or delayed bleeding and no need for CBI. @HUMCUrology brings unmatched SP robotic experience.

[Austen Slade, MD, MBA @AustenSlade]

Had an incredible visit with @RahulMehan1 today.
Different surgeons. Different techniques. Same mission.
From Aquablation to HoLEP, we work together-not against each other-to bring the best technology to men struggling to urinate.
Because it's not about the tool... it's about the outcome.
Stay tuned for episode 2, the laser strikes back.
#aquablation #holep #bph #menshealth #starwars

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@RaviBarodUrol My sincere condolences Ravi. I am sure you made her proud. It’s never easy when mom passes away!

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@doclauravater @CanesDavid Similarly, many of the redundant time-outs and pre- and post-operative checks involved in surgical procedures do not appear to improve quality or reduce errors, but instead add administrative burden and consume valuable clinical time.

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@duakhan128 @SimplyUroMD @HUMCUrology @Endo_Society As technology improves, all aspects of surgery will become increasingly minimally invasive, including complex procedures such as cystectomy, with some innovators adopting these advances faster and setting the trend for others.

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

The best SP course/symposium out there combining hands-on and moderated live surgeries with plenty of opportunities for questions. Led by the most experienced experts at @HUMCUrology, an institution with the highest volume of SP cases. Highly rewarding for selected participants.

[Michael Stifelman @mdstifelman]

Chief Residents, Robotic & Urologic Oncology Fellows—ready to level up?
SP Symposium apps are OPEN: 4 live SP cases, new faculty, hands-on + 3D models, networking 🍽️
Travel + hotel covered.
Spots are limited—apply now https://t.co/lYv8vSCIu9 @RoboticsUrology @MSBillah_md @urorogerio

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@Hoomandjaladat @SimplyUroMD Thank You. Post chemo with residual mass. We give option of keeping them overnight since most pts are traveling from far away

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

Now, with mastery of the MIS approach, SP robotic RPLND can be performed completely retroperitoneally through a single 3 cm incision, next day home, making the case even stronger.

[Urologic Oncology @UrolOncol]

🔥@UrolOncol April issue! #TestisCancer

RPLND in stage II ECP NSGCT
1⃣ 85% cured by primary RPLND alone
2⃣Oncologically safe and effective when performed at high-volume centers
3⃣Results in less secondary therapy and reduces treatment burden

[Mutahar Ahmed @RoboticsUrology]

@mdstifelman @HUMCUrology Two SP systems are now in use at @HMHNewJersey, with a third to be acquired soon—thanks to @mdstifelman. Over 2,500 SP cases have already been performed by @HUMCUrology alone. Contact your Intuitive rep if you’re interested in case observation.
