Thanking all those who joined the presentation on Buccal Epithelium Hashed and Encapsulated in Scaffold – Hybrid Approach to Urethral Stricture (BHES-HAUS) clinical study outcome at the AUA 2026 in Washington DC, USA. Abstract available at https://t.co/g2ZjLystEe
BHES-HAUS: Major takeaways:
• Patient comfort – BHES-HAUS is safe and a single-sitting procedure.
• Physician convenience – BHES-HAUS is a less-invasive endoscopic procedure that can be done in any urology setup.
• Procedural simplicity – No laboratory-based cell culture or transportation is needed.
• Proven safety & Clinical efficacy: In all 15 patients who underwent BHES-HAUS, safety with efficacy shown by recurrence-free outcomes and no need for self-intermittent catheterization in 73.3% of the patients.
BHES-HAUS study included patients who had undergone prior procedures viz., DVIU, and BMG plasty, whose failure had resulted in stricture recurrence and those with post-TURP stricture. Poster presented in AUA 2026 can be viewed at: https://t.co/ybJBBpVnR9
Special thanks to the key people instrumental in reaching these heights, who themselves could join: Dr. Senthil Kumar Rajappa, who did the cell culture work for the Buccal epithelium Expanded and Encapsulated in Scaffold‐Hybrid Approach to Urethral Stricture (BEES‐HAUS) study in India and Japan, whose simplified form is BHES-HAUS; Prof. Suryaprakash Vaddi, whose brainchild was BEES-HAUS, followed by BHES-HAUS; Prof. Dmitriy Nikolavsky, whose work inspired us towards simplifying. Special appreciation and acknowledgement to Prof. Akio Horiguchi, whose validation of BEES-HAUS in animal studies to prove buccal cell engraftment is the first of its kind in the world. It is to be noted that Dr. Suryaprakash proved the clinical efficacy and engraftment for BEES-HAUS, followed by Prof. Horiguchi’s clinical application in Japan. @asukamaru513@suryaprakashuro@UroRecon@UrologyTimes@WVU_Urology@BURSTurology@UMNUrology@EurUrolFocus@urotoday@nyuniversity@UHN@UofT@Cambridge_Uni@UniofOxford@EurUrolOncol@UrowebESU@UrowebESU@Uroweb@CleClinicUro@MayoUrology@UclaUrology@NM_Urology @bradyresidency @MGHUrology@VUMCurology@JEFFUrology@bcm_urology@VattikutiRobotx@VattikutiUrol@UroAcademic@UrologyCareFdn@WakeForestGURS@RoboUro #AUA2026 #Urology #UrethralStricture #Endourology #ReconstructiveUrology #RegenerativeMedicine #TissueEngineering #ClinicalInnovation #TranslationalResearch #BHESHAUS #BEESHAUS #IndiaJapanCollaboration #celltherapy
