JAYARAMDAS PATEL ACADEMIC CENTRE

Muljibhai Patel Urological Hospital (MPUH) Nadiad is organizing a two-day programme on Urethroplasty on 19th & 20 July 2012. The incidence, etiopathology and treatment of urethral stricture disease vary greatly around the world. The newer techniques in urethral reconstructive surgery have empowered the urologist to treat most patients with stricture of the urethra with excellent results. The current approach has shifted from the traditional management like dilation, DVIU and CIC to open reconstruction. The aim of the treatment now is to offer the opportunity of restoration of normal voiding and freedom from follow-up instrumentation. The course will focus on case presentations and discussion of the treatment options from an international perspective. It will offer the urologists an in depth knowledge about treatment algorithm for best treatment for urethral stricture disease. The discussion will include different techniques of urethroplasty, their indications and how to treat their complications.

Dr R B Sabnis, Chairman, Department of Urology, MPUH is the Course Director. Other faculty includes Dr Guido Barbagli (Italy), Drs Sanjay Kulkarni, Mahesh Desai, V Muthu, Sujata Patwardhan and Rishi Grover. A large number of Urologists are scheduled to participate.
