With the support of

ear Friends and Colleagues,It is a great pleasure to welcome you again for the 14th “Challenges in Laparoscopyand Robotics” meeting, this time being held in beautiful, enchanting Bordeaux. Nowin its 14th consecutive year, the concept that initiated this adventure is not only alive,but vibrant and growing, showing great potential for the future of Urology.

The comprehensive scientific program will include live laparoscopic and robotic surgeriesperformed by the world’s most prominent urologic surgeons. In the past meetings, we havewitnessed many challenging procedures. It is now time to expand our indications and to lookforward to new challenges like robotic autotransplantation, augmented reality guided surgery,robotic inguinal lymphadenectomy for penile cancer, laparoscopic and robotic prostaticadenomectomy, Level II-III Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus in RCC, laparoscopic pudendal nerverelease, retroperitoneal robotic lymphadenectomy for testis and/or prostate cancer, retroperitonealrobotic partial nephrectomy, single port nephrectomy, complex laparoscopic advanced radicalnephrectomy and fistulas and strictures. The technological advances like the automatedinstruments of Dexteritè will be implemented. The third day we will have six challenging radicalprostatectomies including the Retzius sparing RARP and the extrafascial radical prostatectomyfor high risk cases and after irradiation.

As always, we will invite the best international speakers touching various topics to give you anup-to-date on the hottest topics in Urology. We are enthusiastically anticipating an extremelystimulating meeting. Live surgery, State-of-the-art lectures, discussions and thought-provokingdebates will take place with the participation of the best urologists in the International arena. Threemonitors will transmit three different live-moderated surgeries simultaneously. Each delegate willbe provided with headphones with the possibility to connect with his/her preferred moderation.

We are very proud to host this 14th International Meeting in Bordeaux ten years after our firstvisit there. Bordeaux, the European cradle of urological laparoscopy, is the perfect city for oldantiquities and innovative techniques to convene. We are confident that the challenging proceduresthat you will see will strongly enhance your own individual learning irrespective of your current level of expertise (basic or advanced) and lead the way towards defining the future ofUrologic Surgery.

See you in Bordeaux!!
