Great to chair moderated poster session at the AUA on BPH Surgical Therapy with @thorsten_bach and my mentor @MaleHealthDoc. Well done to all presenters. #AUA2023 #urology #BPH
Delighted to have implanted the first Interstim X @MedtronicIrl in Ireland at @brc_clinic. Sacral neuromodulation is established treatment for OAB and non obstructive urinary retention. The prolonged battery life with Interstim X will give patients further benefit.
