SEPTEMBER 2025
TUF fellows Mike Ng and Rustam Karanjia, along with Urology Consultants Nick Campain and Nish Bedi, travelled to Ndola Zambia for a Prostate Uroweek. The workshop focussed on teaching TURP and transperineal prostate biopsies. The visit highlights the importance of selecting appropriate patients for further investigation or surgery. Teaching these skills was enormously beneficial to the local patient population with two patients becoming catheter free after 5 and 6 years. Urolink visits always offer bi-directional learning with the TUF fellows also gaining valuable open operating experience.
