The Hospital de Clínicas has been performing annually a live surgery course since 2003.

In previous editions, Arthur Smith, Glenn Preminger, Jorge Gutiérrez, Thomas Chi, Brian Eisner and many other opinion leaders of Latin America came to perform surgeries in our hospital’s ORs. This year, pandemic has led us to change the modality. The Course will be in March 4th and 5th 2021, and the surgeries will be broadcast from the Hospital of each participating surgeon in different parts of the world, with a semi-live modality, in English and Spanish simultaneously. The Focal Therapy Society, the Society of Urologic Robotic Surgeons and the Endourological Society sponsor this activity, that is free of charge for members of such societies.

The group of confirmed urologists is made up of high-ranking professionals: Manoj Monga, Jorge Gutiérrez, Fabio Vicentini, Evangelos Liatsikos, Guido Giusti and Guohua Zeng showing different approaches on Percutaneous Renal Surgery. Olivier Traxer, Jamie Landman, Marcelo Baptistussi and Wilson Molina will perform RIRS with different technologies. Fernando Gomez Sancha Thomas Hermann and Felipe Figueiredo will join them with different treatments for BPH, Ash Tewari with a robotic radical prostatectomy, and many more. Among the surgeries moderators, we count on the presence of Arthur Smith, Margaret Pearle, Amy Krambeck, Gerhard Fuchs, Kemal Sarica and Glenn Preminger, among others.

We look forward to seeing you!
