Amazing day today! Honored to give the opening lecture for the Southeastern section of the American Urology Association (SESAUA) Annual Meeting at the Grand Hyatt Nashville today! My talk was on the management of chronic testicular and groin pain. It’s been 15 years of my life’s work and a topic I am immensely passionate about. This is truly an example of the development of bench research all the way to clinical application. I completed a study 15 years ago identifying specific nerves that may cause this pain and developed some targeted surgical techniques to treat this condition: 1) Office-based Targeted denervation of the spermatic cord (TDSC) & 2) Office-based Targeted peri-spermatic cord & ilioinguinal cryoablation (TPSC). We have completed over 3000 TDSC procedures and over 1500 TPSC procedures now. Overall success rates are: 86% for TDSC & 78% for TPSC. It is a very difficult condition for patients who endure this pain and for urologists to treat. We have helped thousands of patients, but we have also failed to help some patients. Being able to present today, being part of the AUA guidelines committee for some new guidelines for pelvic pain that will be coming out in a few months, and being part of an AUA pelvic pain course at this year’s annual meeting are all a dream come true for me. I really just want to help men with this condition and contribute in a meaningful way. We are always looking for ways to improve our outcomes.
Got to check out some cool new technology from @bostonscientific and @emanoflow - just had a bit of performance anxiety for my flow test !!

Feasibility and insights from remote uroflowmetry and outcome measurement in 945 subjects and 60,000 urinations
Emano Flow-Based Remote Uroflowmetry in Men With Persistent Nocturia Reveals that Obstruction Is Not a Primary Causal Factor
🌟 From SexTech to ToiletTech! 🌟
I usually share updates about exciting advancements in the SexTech space, but today, I’m shifting gears to share something equally fascinating—a groundbreaking innovation I’m calling ToiletTech!

I’m a fan of innovative tech especially when it allows us to objectively understand patient symptoms in the comfort of their home (or bathroom). How freaking cool is report? I have my patients track their urine flow and volumes using the mic on their phone using Emano Flow 🤯
Californian urologist, Dr. David Laub, enhanced patient care and increased revenue at his practice by simply substituting traditional in-clinic uroflowmetry methods with a more modern, convenient, remote alternative.

📱 Patient - User Review Highlight ⭐
Exciting feedback from a BPH patient! Skeptical of traditional uroflowmetry's variable flow rates, they found our remote, digital uroflowmetry a game-changer, deepening their understanding of their condition.
