7th International Congress on the History of Urology

The 7th International Congress on the History of Urology will be held in conjunction with EAU23 on Friday 10 March, 2023.

The day-long programme, subtitled ‘Paradigm Shifts in Urology: 50 Years of Major Developments’ will examine some highlights in urology that coincide with the EAU’s five decades of excellence. The selected speakers are experts in their respective fields, and will also be encouraged to go further back in history. The congress marks the conclusion of the EAU’s 50th Anniversary celebrations that started in Amsterdam at EAU22.
