    Ep. 289 Insights into Urethroplasty & Reconstructive Care with Dr. Benjamin N. Breyer

    Is transecting urethroplasty still the default, or is reconstructive urology moving beyond it? In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Ben Breyer (University of California San Francisco) joins host Dr. George Koch (Ohio State University) to discuss evolving approaches in reconstructive urology with an emphasis on complex stricture cases. --- SYNPOSIS Throughout the conversation, Dr. Breyer reflects on his path into the subspecialty and breaks down the evolution of reconstructive practice, particularly the shift from anastomotic urethroplasty to non-transecting techniques. Dr. Breyer and Dr. Koch also discuss managing complex urethral strictures, including cases involving prior radiation and inflammatory conditions, while emphasizing thoughtful patient selection and surgical planning. Finally, they explore the current training landscape, challenges in patient access to subspecialty reconstructive care, and why patient-reported outcomes will play a central role in shaping future innovation in urethral reconstruction. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction05:40 - Evolution of Surgical Techniques10:01 - Managing Complex Cases14:19 - Education and Training in Reconstructive Urology23:45 - The Future of Reconstructive Urology28:45 - The Journey of a Reconstructive Urologist30:45 - Challenges in Urology Training and Practice35:35 - Addressing Urologist Shortages in Rural Areas48:34 - Innovations and Research in Reconstructive Urology57:25 - Final Thoughts

    Ep. 288 Active Surveillance for Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer with Dr. Claire de la Calle

    When is active surveillance the right choice for intermediate-risk prostate cancer patients? In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Claire de la Calle, Assistant Professor of Urology at the University of Washington, joins Dr. Ruchika Talwar to unpack how active surveillance has evolved beyond low-risk disease and why select Grade Group 2 patients may be appropriate candidates now with thoughtful patient selection. --- SYNPOSIS The conversation explores emerging tools that can refine surveillance decisions, including PSA density, MRI findings, genomic classifiers, and the growing role of AI-assisted pathology. Dr. de la Calle emphasizes the importance of nuanced patient counseling, acknowledging anxiety and long-term risk while reinforcing that time on active surveillance can be a meaningful win when oncologic outcomes remain comparable to upfront treatment. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction02:58 - Current Evidence05:03 - Patient Selection Criteria12:11 - Importance of PSA Density and Monitoring Protocols18:12 - Pathology and Genomic Testing32:18 - Future Directions and Research36:33 - Key Takeaways --- RESOURCES ProtecT Trial: Fifteen-Year Outcomes after Monitoring, Surgery, or Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancerhttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2214122 Canary PASS Studyhttps://canarypass.org/ Genomic Classifier Performance in Intermediate-Risk Prostate Cancer: Results From NRG Oncology/RTOG 0126 Randomized Phase 3 Trialhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37137444

    Ep. 287 Urothelial Carcinoma: Understanding CTDNA and Precision Medicine with Dr. Amanda Nizam and Dr. Brad McGregor

    Is the era of cisplatin over, or are we simply becoming more precise about who benefits from it? As perioperative strategies in bladder cancer continue to evolve, emerging tools like circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) are playing a bigger role in how clinicians assess recurrence risk and tailor treatment. In this episode of BackTable Tumor Board, host Alan Tan, medical oncologist at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, is joined by bladder cancer experts Dr. Amanda Nizam and Dr. Brad McGregor to discuss recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma. --- SYNPOSIS The doctors examine the evolving management of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), including the role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies, the integration of immunotherapy, and the recent approval of enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab. The discussion explores the rapidly changing perioperative landscape, the prognostic utility of ctDNA, and how biomarkers such as HER2 and FGFR are influencing treatment selection across disease states. They also address bladder preservation strategies, management of treatment-related toxicities, and the importance of multidisciplinary coordination. The episode concludes with a forward-looking discussion on emerging therapies and the potential to improve cure rates in bladder cancer. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction01:44 - Overview of Bladder Cancer Treatment04:54 - Patient Staging and Treatment Goals10:12 - Bladder Preservation vs. Radical Cystectomy16:39 - Emerging Trials and Future Directions22:40 - ctDNA and Precision Medicine33:50 - Metastatic Disease and Biomarker Strategies42:16 - Managing Neuropathy in Metastatic Treatment48:44 - HER2 and FGFR in Bladder Cancer54:15 - Future Directions in Bladder Cancer Treatment --- RESOURCES EV-302/303 Trialhttps://newsroom.astellas.com/2023-12-15-PADCEV-R-enfortumab-vedotin-ejfv-with-KEYTRUDA-R-pembrolizumab-Approved-by-FDA-as-the-First-and-Only-ADC-Plus-PD-1-to-Treat-Advanced-Bladder-Cancer NIAGARA Regimenhttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2408154 KEYNOTE-905 Studyhttps://www.annalsofoncology.org/article/S0923-7534(25)04894-X/fulltext

    Ep. 286 Antibiotic Stewardship in Reconstructive Urology with Dr. Joshua Sterling

    In reconstructive urology, preventing infection often means prolonged antibiotic exposure, raising important questions about stewardship and long-term harm. In this episode of BackTable Urology, Joshua Sterling of Yale University joins host George Koch to examine how antibiotic stewardship and emerging insights into the urinary microbiome are reshaping infection management in reconstructive practice. --- SYNPOSIS The discussion centers on real-world clinical challenges, particularly in high-risk populations such as patients with neurogenic bladder, chronic catheterization, or prior reconstruction - groups in whom antibiotics are frequently used prophylactically or indefinitely. Drs. Sterling and Koch explore how well-intentioned prescribing patterns can contribute to resistance, dysbiosis, and recurrent infection, while often failing to address the underlying drivers of disease. Rather than framing infection control solely around eradication, the conversation considers a shift toward modulation of the urinary microbiome, drawing on lessons from gastroenterology, infectious disease, and transplant medicine. The episode concludes by outlining how a more nuanced, multidisciplinary approach may better serve reconstructive urology patients in the long term. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction02:22 - Antibiotic Stewardship in Urology06:34 - Current Landscape of Antibiotic Use13:44 - Protocols and Practices in Reconstruction18:24 - Antibiotic Overuse and Misuse21:02 - Shifting the Microbiome25:12 - Chlorhexidine Irrigations32:38 - Future Directions38:27 - Implementing Antibiotic Protocols40:48 - Conclusions --- RESOURCES STOP-IT Trialhttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1411162

    Ep. 284 Integrating Gender Affirming Care Into Urology with Dr. Eric Walton

    Gender affirming surgery is becoming a more visible part of urologic practice, raising practical questions about surgical training, case volume, and multidisciplinary support. In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Eric Walton of The Ohio State University joins Dr. George Koch to examine how gender affirming surgery is being integrated into contemporary urology. Dr. Walton discusses his path into reconstructive urology, structural barriers that limit patient access, and why expanding surgical training pathways is central to closing gaps in care. --- SYNPOSIS The conversation explores fellowship models, academic versus private practice settings, and the role of multidisciplinary teams in supporting surgical programs. Practical considerations around patient screening, care coordination, and insurance are addressed, reframing gender affirming surgery as a core component of modern urologic care rather than a subspecialty outlier. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction00:52 - Journey to Gender Affirming Surgery03:29 - Specialized Training in Gender Surgery09:34 - Building a Gender Surgery Program27:54 - Providing Competent and Affirming Care32:54 - Future of Gender Affirming Surgery in Urology39:58 - Final Thoughts and Advice --- RESOURCES World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Standards of Care:https://wpath.org/publications/soc8/
