Tev Aho organises teaching course and debates HoLEP at The European Association of Urology Meeting in Munich
3rd May 2016
March 2016: Munich.
Tev Aho was invited to organise a Hands on Training Course on HoLEP by the European School of
Urology in March. A realistic prostate model, which Mr Aho has been involved in developing for
teaching HoLEP, was used to train course attendees. The course was held at the Annual Congress
of the European Association of Urology in Munich and was fully subscribed by delegates from
many different centres in Europe and beyond. For most it was their first hands on experience of
HoLEP.
At the same Congress, Mr Aho was also invited to join other laser experts from Europe and the
USA for a discussion of laser techniques for prostate and stone surgery. Mr Aho’s topic was to
address the question “ Which is the best energy source for endoscopic enucleation of the prostate
and why?”
