Enuresis, or bedwetting, is one of the most common concerns encountered in pediatrics. It can present as nighttime bedwetting, daytime urinary accidents, or a combination of both. Oftentimes, families and clinicians are left wondering what's typical and what's considered concerning. In this episode, we focus on the evaluation and management of enuresis in children. Each case is influenced by a range of factors including fluid intake, bowel habits, sleep quality and lifestyle routines. While first-line, non-pharmacologic strategies are the cornerstone of care, effective treatment requires attention to detail and a comprehensive approach. This episode was recorded on the exhibit floor at the 2025 American Academy of Pediatrics Conference in Denver, Colorado. In this episode, we are joined by Julie Cheng, MD, an Assistant Professor of Urology at Seattle Children's Hospital and the University of Washington. Some highlights from this episode include: Differentiating between types of enuresis How key elements in pediatric history and physical examination can help diagnose the problem Evidence-based first-line interventions and when to escalate care The role behavioral factors, such as sleep or screen time, play in enuresis For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.

In a conversation with CancerNetwork® following the FDA approval of the gemcitabine intravesical system (Inlexzo; formerly TAR-200) for patients with high-risk, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)–unresponsive non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), Gary Steinberg, MD, discussed how this regulatory decision may impact the treatment paradigm. Steinberg, a professor in the Department of Urology at Rush University, highlighted an unmet need for those with BCG-unresponsive, high-grade NMIBC. With a different mechanism of action compared with prior therapeutic choices in the field, he stated that the gemcitabine intravesical system may allow patients and physicians to benefit tremendously. Based on supporting data from the phase 2 SunRISe-1 trial (NCT04640623), he described how the gemcitabine intravesical system may replace prior standards such as intravesical gemcitabine plus docetaxel. The conversation also touched upon considerations for preventing the risk of progression to metastatic disease with delayed cystectomy, as Steinberg emphasized following up with patients via cystoscopies, urinary cytologies, CT scans, or MRI imaging after treatment with the intravesical system. Steinberg also detailed strategies for mitigating urinary frequency, dysuria, and other toxicities associated with the therapy. He noted a “fine line” regarding bladder medication administration to older patient populations, as these practices may cause adverse effects such as dry mouth, constipation, and blurry vision. Looking ahead, Steinberg illustrated a need to clarify the immunologic effects of regimens like the gemcitabine intravesical system, which can inform the use of additional therapeutic combinations down the road. He highlighted how other novel agents like cretostimogene grenadenorepvec (CG0070) may further improve outcomes in the NMIBC landscape. “One of the key questions that we all need to ask with all our treatments is not about the patients who respond, but about the patients who do not respond,” Steingerg stated regarding the potential next steps for research. “We can begin to understand mechanisms of resistance so that we can target those mechanisms of resistance and treat them better.” Reference U.S. FDA approval of INLEXZO (gemcitabine intravesical system) set to transform how certain bladder cancers are treated.

In Episode 3 "Pharmaceutical preventative measures" of the series "How to prevent anxiety in children undergoing urological procedures", MSc. Gülhan Karaöz-Bulut (NL) and Dr. M. İrfan Dönmez (TR) discuss how medications can support anxiety reduction in paediatric urological care. They begin by emphasising that sedation should not be a goal on its own but part of a broader, child-centred strategy aimed at preventing trauma and building trust. The episode reviews several commonly used agents - nitrous oxide, midazolam, dexmedetomidine, clonidine and ketamine - with clear explanations of their benefits, limitations, and suitability for different procedures.The speakers provide guidance on how each medication affects the child's experience, with practical considerations such as onset time, duration, side effects and how they may impact diagnostic results. Special attention is given to the impact of sedatives on urodynamic studies, highlighting where certain agents (like dexmedetomidine or ketamine) may alter bladder function. They also address administration methods, such as intranasal and oral routes, and the importance of planning around food intake and hydration.Throughout, the discussion underscores that medication should be tailored to the individual child and procedure, always supported by experienced clinical staff. The episode closes with a strong reminder that safe and effective sedation enhances both procedural success and the child's well-being.*See references and additional research information hereFor more EAU podcasts, please go to your favourite podcast app and subscribe to our podcast channel for regular updates: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, EAU YouTube channel.

What if prostate cancer surgery meant fewer incisions, faster recovery, and more precise cancer control? Today I'm joined by Dr. Michael D. Stifelman, Chair of Urology at Hackensack University Medical Center and a pioneer in robotic surgery with 4,000+ robotic procedures. We unpack how single-port robotics, real-time margin assessment, and AI are reshaping outcomes—while protecting continence and erections.Dr. Stifelman traces robotics from the early-2000s “pioneer phase” (and heavy skepticism) to today's standard of care, explaining why reproducibility, visualization, and tissue-sparing dexterity made the difference. We compare surgery vs. radiation (and focal therapies), when each shines, and why sequencing often matters—especially in higher-risk disease. He shares emerging tech like single-port prostatectomy, intra-operative margin evaluation (e.g., Histo-style scanning), quantitative surgical analytics, and even remote robotic assistance. We also talk “trifecta” outcomes, the role of genomics in Gleason 7 decision-making, and why lifestyle medicine and optimizing the tumor micro-environment go hand-in-hand with any treatment.Time-Stamped Highlights00:00 – Why fewer incisions + faster recovery are now real in prostate surgery05:40 – Work–life changes that improved health (sleep, exercise, biking)09:10 – Open vs. robotic: why reproducibility (teachability) matters11:05 – Robotics adoption curve: from early resistance to mainstream19:05 – Outcomes today: continence and erections after modern surgery20:10 – “Yes, I'm a surgeon—and here's my bias.” Radical honesty with patients22:05 – Offering the full menu: surveillance, focal (HIFU/cryotherapy), surgery, SBRT, proton25:40 – High-risk (Gleason 8–9): why surgery-first can preserve options & avoid long ADT34:00 – Dexterity & visualization: why robots spare nerves with less trauma35:10 – Real-time margin assessment during surgery to reduce positives40:00 – The “trifecta” (cancer control, continence, erections) and patient priorities42:10 – Genomics to risk-stratify Gleason 7 and guide surveillance vs. treatment45:00 – Future: nerve activation mapping & fluorescence to “light up” cancer46:10 – Single-port prostatectomy: smaller access, faster return of function (select patients)49:00 – Quantifying surgery with analytics; tele-mentoring & remote console potential52:30 – How to find Dr. Stifelman & closing advice

Interviewees: Josh Schammel, MD; Brian Inouye, MD; and Becky Stetzer, MD Interviewer: Justin Bullock, MD, MPH Description: In this episode, Dr. Justin Bullock talks with Dr. Josh Schammel (chief urology resident at Albany Medical Center), Dr. Brian Inouye (associate program director of urology at Albany Med), and Dr. Becky Stetzer (assistant dean of competency development, Albany Med) about navigating remediation, cognitive disability support, and institutional change in residency training.

They explore how leadership reframed remediation from punitive to restorative, how program culture embraced accommodations even without a formal diagnosis, and how outside expertise in competency development reshaped both Josh's trajectory and the program's systems. Listeners will hear candid reflections on the fear of dismissal, the relief of being given a “do-over” year, and the powerful role of trust and transparency in rebuilding confidence. The team highlights the importance of creating a culture where struggling is not synonymous with failure, but with an opportunity for growth.
