challenges in laparoscopy |

Welcome to the 9th edition

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to Rome for the European Meeting on Laparoscopic and Robotic Urologic Surgery.
“Challenges in Laparoscopy and Robotics” has reached the 9th edition and the concept that initiated this adventure is still quite alive and shows great potential for the future of Urology.
The comprehensive scientific program will include live laparoscopic and robotic surgery performed by the world’s most prominent urologic surgeons.
In the past meetings, we have witnessed many challenging laparoscopic procedures. It is now time to expand our indications and to look forward to new challenges like the Trans-Douglas RALP, the Clampless Partial Nephrectomy, the Less Robotic Pyeloplasty, the retroperitoneal Robotic Partial Nephrectomy and the HD-3D STORZ System. We are enthusiastically anticipating an extremely stimulating meeting. Live surgery, discussions and thought-provoking debates will take place with participation of the best urologists in the international arena. We are very proud to host this 9th International Meeting in Rome, the perfect city for old antiquities and innovative techniques to convene. We hope that the challenging procedures that you will see will lead the way towards defining the future of Urologic Surgery.
