LEP program well on its way at Red Deer Regional hospital with 7th case completed this week. Collaborative provincial effort from U of A + U of C @AssmusMark @fadl_hamouche. Proud of Dr. Haines for first case front to back. Thanks @CanUrolAssoc and @Olympus_Corp for support
2 years ago: NO laser enucleation of the prostate available in Alberta. This week: we combined to laser enucleate >1000g of prostate tissue from patients across the province. #HoLEP #ThuLEP @Nick_sDean @fadl_hamouche @UAlbertaUrology @saiuCalgary

Sold out enucleation for BPH course at the AUA 2024. It takes a village to get one of these courses off the ground and I truly appreciate all the experts- from clinicians to industry -who dedicated their time. Thank you!@NM_Urology @EndourologyNm @AssmusMark #AUA24

24 fr scope for HoLEP has similar efficiency, but poorer subjective flow/visualization compared to 28 Fr.
No difference in postoperative continence recovery, hematuria or complications.
Lower same day cath removal rate.

Single transverse chest roll is safe and effective for prone PCNL positioning compared to double transverse!
An easier method with some potential patient benefits
