    Ep. 206 Biochemical Recurrence: Insights from AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guidelines with Dr. Todd Morgan

    Have you checked out the AUA/ASTRO/SUO’s recently released guidelines for salvage therapy in prostate cancer biochemical recurrence? In this episode of the BackTable Urology Podcast, guest Dr. Todd Morgan from the University of Michigan and host Dr. Aditya Bagrodia continue with part two of our series on prostate cancer biochemical recurrence management. --- This podcast is supported by: Veracyte https://www.veracyte.com/decipher --- SYNPOSIS The doctors focus on the difficulty in declaring a patient 'cured' and the implications of biochemical recurrence after treatment. Dr. Morgan highlights the importance of PSA in the postoperative setting and explores the role of the Decipher Prostate Genomic Classifier in personalizing treatment. He talks through the latest AUA/ASTRO/SUO consensus on biochemical recurrence guidelines, including the significance of early salvage therapy and the integration of advanced imaging techniques like PSMA PET scans. Further, Dr. Morgan emphasizes the role for multidisciplinary evaluation, patient counseling, and future directions of research to refine treatment options. This discussion underscores the transition from adjuvant to early salvage radiation as a standard practice and considers emerging biomarker strategies to inform treatment decisions. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 03:41 - Consensus Biochemical Recurrence Guidelines 08:56 - Evolution of Post-Prostatectomy Biochemical Recurrence Management 13:24 - Patient Counseling and Risk of Recurrence 17:42 - PSMA PET Scans 20:44 - Postoperative PSA Monitoring 28:35 - The Role of Radiation 31:56 - Hormone Therapy 39:00 - Salvage Lymphadenectomy 46:30 - Future Directions and Concluding Thoughts --- RESOURCES Veracyte https://www.veracyte.com/ Salvage Therapy for Prostate Cancer: AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guideline (2024) https://www.auanet.org/guidelines-and-quality/guidelines/salvage-therapy-for-prostate-cancer

    Ep. 205 Optimizing Bladder Health in BPH Treatment Strategies with Dr. Shawn West

    While benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) care has historically focused on immediate symptom management, often by way of long-term polypharmacy, leading urologists are now considering long-term bladder health when determining the most appropriate BPH treatment. In this episode of the BackTable Urology Podcast, Dr. Shawn West, a urologist practicing at McIver Clinic in Florida, discusses the contemporary management of BPH with host Dr. Jose Silva, emphasizing the newly appreciated role of first-line interventional therapy. --- This podcast is supported by: Teleflex UroLift https://www.urolift.com/ --- SYNPOSIS First, Dr. West delves into the initial patient consultation, diagnostic procedures, and the diverse treatment options for BPH including UroLift, GreenLight laser therapy, and Aquablation. Dr. West emphasizes the importance of individualized patient care, the role of objective symptom scoring systems, and the significance of setting realistic expectations for patients. The discussion also covers the benefits and challenges of different BPH treatments amidst the evolving landscape of minimally invasive urological procedures. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 03:59 - BPH and Voiding Dysfunction 10:21 - Patient-Centered Approach to BPH 19:46 - Diagnostic Workup for BPH 24:53 - Postoperative Catheter and Complications 25:02 - Aquablation 26:04 - UroLift 31:06 - Challenges with Median Lobes 41:02 - Postoperative Care 47:14 - Conclusion

    Ep. 203 Active Surveillance: A Data Driven Approach with Dr. Dan Lin

    Recent research is changing how we manage low risk prostate cancer. In this BackTable Urology Podcast episode, Dr. Dan Lin, a urologist at the University of Washington, walks through contemporary diagnosis, surveillance, and management of Grade Group 2 prostate cancer with host Dr. Aditya Bagrodia. --- This podcast is supported by: Veracyte https://www.veracyte.com/decipher --- SYNPOSIS The doctors delve into real-world implementation of active surveillance, alongside the use of advanced diagnostics, biopsy methods, and personalized care plans. The conversation highlights the Canary Prostate Active Surveillance Study (PASS) and the prognostic role of biomarkers and genomic testing. Dr. Lin and Dr. Bagrodia also discuss how lifestyle factors such as diet impact cancer progression and how patients can be empowered to manage their disease. Strategies for transitioning patients off surveillance are highlighted. Finally, the two experts discuss insights from recent clinical trials like PIVOT, PROTECT, and SPCG and how they’re impacting prostate cancer management. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 02:54 - Active Surveillance and Canary PASS Data 12:02 - Biopsy Considerations 19:44 - Active Surveillance Protocols 26:58 - Patient Concerns and Risk Reduction 30:52 - Transitioning Off Surveillance 33:39 - Grade Group 2: Treatment vs. Monitoring 46:24 - Surgical Considerations and Node Dissection 49:25 - Future Directions --- RESOURCES Veracyte https://www.veracyte.com/

    Ep. 201 Expert Approaches to Complex PC RPLND Cases with Dr. Timothy Masterson and Dr. Rob Hamilton, Part One

    Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) for testicular cancer can be a challenging surgery, even for the most experienced urologic oncologists. In part one of this special two-part series, host Dr. Aditya Bagrodia invites Society of Urologic Oncologists (SUO) members Dr. Timothy Masterson (Indiana University) and Dr. Robert Hamilton (Princess Margaret Hospital/University of Toronto) to cover current approaches to post-chemotherapy RPLND. --- SYNPOSIS First, the urologists delve into the technical considerations and perioperative planning for post-chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissections (RPLND) in patients with germ cell tumors. They discuss the importance of patient preparation, imaging assessments, and surgical approaches. Additionally, they explain their own surgical techniques as well as tips for dealing with operative complications. To end, their discussion addresses the importance of a multidisciplinary team and practical tips for ensuring successful surgical outcomes. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 01:37 - Preparing for Post-Chemotherapy RPLND 08:10 - Intraoperative Considerations 11:02 - Handling Complications 20:11 - Vascular Anatomy and Preoperative Planning 27:13 - Anesthesia Considerations and Pain Management 29:22 - Essential Tools and Techniques for Surgery 38:24 - Incision Strategies and Post-Chemotherapy Considerations 46:32 - Extraperitoneal Approach and Future Research --- RESOURCES Society of Urologic Oncologists https://suonet.org/home.aspx
