☀️ El Dr. Antonio Gómez Rodríguez, urólogo de ICUA, recuerda que muchas ETS pueden no presentar síntomas.
Usa preservativo, limita el alcohol, mantén al día tus vacunas y hazte pruebas tras relaciones sin protección o un cambio de pareja.

ASCO 2026 gave us Dato-DXd, SG, Daraxonrasib, CAR-T, bispecific antibodies, and many reasons for optimism.
The next morning in clinic, the questions are often different:
• Is the biopsy adequate?
• Can the patient tolerate treatment?
• Can they afford NGS?
• Will immunotherapy be covered?
• Is the drug even available?
Science is moving faster than ever.
Access, affordability, tissue adequacy, and performance status remain some of the biggest challenges in oncology.

The approval answers one question, but leaves another unanswered: which patients truly derive enough benefit to justify escalation beyond optimized BCG?
The FDA approval of durvalumab plus BCG in high-risk NMIBC was driven by a meaningful improvement in disease-free survival (HR 0.68), mainly recurrence free survival. Checkpoint inhibitors are not benign therapies, carrying ~ 15% risk of serious treatment-related adverse events.
At the same time, this trial also demonstrated that patients with BCG-naïve high-risk NMIBC have low rates of progression and bladder cancer mortality, when treated with BCG appropriately.
For many patients, the balance between reducing recurrence and exposing them to potentially significant toxicity is not straightforward.
That raises a practical question: who should actually receive treatment intensification?
🚨A lot of new options for #BCGunresponsive NMIBC, but no direct comparisons
🤼We've tried to do some work on this, along with my friend @siadaneshmand and others

🔹El equipo de ICUA ha participado en el I Curso de Enucleación Prostática Anatómica en Directo: del Residente al Maestro, un encuentro formativo sobre técnicas avanzadas para el tratamiento quirúrgico de la hiperplasia benigna de #próstata.

Perioperative EV + Pembrolizumab vs Gemcitabine + Cisplatin in cisplatin-eligible MIBC:
• 24-mo EFS: 79.4% vs 66.2% • HR for EFS: 0.53 • 24-mo OS: 86.9% vs 81.3% • pCR: 55.8% vs 32.5%
Key message: Strong perioperative efficacy signal with meaningful pCR improvement and emerging OS benefit.
Potential future perioperative standard in cisplatin-eligible bladder cancer.

Thanks to every faculty member who travelled. To Álvaro Juárez Soto and AAU. To the 75 urologists who packed the room and pushed every break.
We leave Jerez euphoric, energized, determined. Every patient in Spain deserves access to this technique.
We'll be back. 7/7
Takeaways:
— En bloc enucleation can be learned during residency — Real-time OR supervision beats any wet lab — Tech adds value only on a clear anatomical concept — Honest school comparison raises every conversation — Institutional alignment matters 6/7
The closing session was the most important: Heads of Urology of public hospitals across Andalusia at the same table, openly discussing how to consolidate anatomical enucleation in their services.
That doesn't happen every day. 5/7
Day 2. Parallel live surgeries with @Alfonso_GimenoC (Madrid) and @ThiagoHotaUro (Brazil).
I lectured on laser physics. Javier Sánchez Macías (Barcelona) and I closed with two more live cases. 4/7
Moisés Rodríguez Socarrás demonstrated microUS-guided focal cancer treatment combined with HoLEP — a live glimpse of where anatomical enucleation meets focal prostate oncology.
In front of 75 urologists. 3/7
Day 1. Residents Belén Barba & Miguel Ugidos operated as primary surgeons under expert supervision.
International faculty in parallel ORs: Martin Kanne (Berlin), Julio Fernández del Álamo, Jean Baptiste Roche (Bordeaux), Cesare Scoffone (Turin), Nelson Canales. 2/7
Two days. Live surgery. Residents operating as primary surgeons in front of an international faculty.
I AAU International Course on Anatomical Prostatic Enucleation — Hospital Universitario de Jerez. "From Resident to Master."
On my way back home from a great 1st edition of the int. Enucleation meeting in Jerez de la Frontera. Teaching HoLEP is the key! Looking forward for many more editions in the future! https://t.co/z9Xdkedpw5 @fgomsan@scoffonecesare@ThiagoHotaUro@alvarojuarezs
