Out in @EurUrolOpen our global ๐ Delphi consensus about #tumor #rupture during #robotic #partialnephrectomy! This consensus forms a basis for future #research on tumor rupture in #RAPN, emphasizing need for #standardized #definitions and uniform #management strategies.โฆ
๐ฐ RCC Article of the Month: Phase 2 trial shows SBRT can be an effective option for cT1a RCC in frail patients (95% local control, 96% 3-yr PFS/CSS). Genomic profiling may guide precision radiotherapy. Read article, plus commentary by Dr. @RicBertolo ๐ kidney.uroonco.uroweb.org/publication/stโฆ
โผ๏ธnew study by @UniVerona #urology teamโผ๏ธ We explored effects of early vs delayed ureteral ligation during #RARC: early ligation associated with โฌ๏ธ risk of functional decline, with significantly โฌ๏ธ chance of โฅ25% reduction in eGFR and eGFR <60 ml/min (HR 10.3 and 7.3, p<0.04)
One week ago in Florence โฆ united to learn, share, and grow โ all with one common goal: to improve and advance in minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic surgery. A journey of innovation, passion, and collaboration. #CILR25 @minerviniandre See you in Rome in 2026!

Recently concluded @Synergy_Uro โ great participation and scientific exchange. The opening session on #RCC set the tone, with a strong #multidisciplinary focus. More than science โ #SYNERGY was about connection, collaboration, and friendship.

Itโs almost time! โฐ Tomorrow marks the launch of the very first edition of the Sinergy Multidisciplinary Congress โ where innovation meets collaboration. Stay tuned for updates, insights, and a glimpse into the future of integrated science and practice! โจ๐ฌ๐ค
Published by @UniVerona #Urology team in @BJUICompass a comparative #analysis of CT scans and 3D virtual models for preoperative #renal #tumor assessments, demonstrating that 3D models significantly increased interobserver agreement, highlighting their potential to improveโฆ
