Anne-Marie Houle PrГ©sident, Northeastern Section of the AUA 3 N EEDS AS S ES S M ENT The field of urology is in constant evolution and established practices need to be periodically updated. This yearвЂ™s Annual Meeting will provide participating urologists with several such updates. The topics will focus on urologic malignancies (e.g., prostate, bladder and renal cancers), as well as non-malignant pathologies (e.g., benign prostatic hypertrophy, urinary incontinence, prostatitis, overactive bladder and hypogonadism). Urologic malignancies contribute to a significant proportion of urologic referrals. In the past decade the treatment algorithms have changed for patients with renal cancer. Patients with small renal masses may benefit from multiple treatment alternatives, which range from surgery to surveillance. Patients with unresectable or metastatic renal cancer can now benefit from an array of systemic therapies. The urologist needs to play a central role, as cytoreductive nephrectomy and metastasectomy remain key management components for such patients and their timing is crucial. In the field of prostate cancer, several paradigms have changed. For example, controversy exists regarding screening. Novel preventive modalities will soon be introduced. Finally, the long-term risks and benefits of androgen ablation therapy affect the timing, the duration and the patterns of administration of this treatment modality. In bladder cancer several therapeutic alternatives exist for patients with non-muscle invasive high risk disease. These issues will be addressed in the program. Despite the importance of urologic malignancies, the bulk of urologic referrals are for non-malignant pathology. Prostatitis, benign prostatic hypertrophy, overactive bladder, hypogonadism and erectile dysfunction represent some of many common urologic complaints. Despite their apparent simplicity, the investigation and/or management of these conditions may represent a challenge. Moreover, novel pharmacological management options have multiplied for several of these conditions. For example, the number of medical management options for overactive bladder has increased exponentially. Conversely, effective treatment options for patients with prostatitis remain scarce. To address the diagnosis and management of these urologic conditions, the 2009 NS-AUA Annual Meeting will feature a total of 10 presentations that will be complemented by an equal number of expert panels and additional point-counterpoint sessions. Eight poster sessions will cover these areas with expert moderated discussions around the presented topics. Overall, the state-of-the-art lectures, podium and poster sessions presented by many North American and European experts promise to deliver excellent educational value. The meeting will offer up to 18.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Creditsв„ў. LEARN I NG OBJ ECTIVES At the conclusion of the 2009 NS-AUA Annual Meeting, participants should be able to: в– interpret and evaluate the existing evidence in favor and against prostate cancer screening в– critically appraise the data on available chemoprevention therapies for prostate cancer в– weigh the pros and cons of early vs. delayed androgen deprivation therapy and critically appraise the value of continuous vs. intermittent therapy в– critically appraise the risks and benefits of intravesicle therapy relative to early cystectomy for non-muscle invasive high risk bladder cancer patients в– gain a thorough understanding of medical management of overactive bladder в– obtain an update of available management options and their efficacy for patients with chronic prostatitis в– review the magnitude of urologic risks associated with testosterone supplementation в– examine the value of available treatment regimens for erectile dysfunction in the aging male, as well as after urologic surgery в– reassess the central role of the urologist in the management of surgically unresectable and metastatic renal cancer, and become familiar with the existing molecules for the management of unresectable and/or metastatic renal cell carcinoma and with the common toxicities 4 Northeastern Section of the AUA вЂ” 2009 Annual Meeting C O N T I N U I N G M E D I CA L E D U CAT I O N Accreditation: The American Urological Association (AUA) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The NS-AUA started funding research in 1995 through a grant from Searle Canada and Searle USA. A Research and Education Fund was established to assure the membership of the NS-AUA continuing excellence in research and educational activity within the Section. The NS-AUA Scholarship Program was established in 1998 to provide financial scholarships to support research and educational projects. The Section offers up to two scholarship awards annually. These Young Investigator Awards provide financial assistance to a researcher in basic or clinical sciences related to urology, and to acquiring, developing or improving his or her knowledge and skills in a specific aspect of the specialty. In all, 19 researchers have been awarded research scholarships. Through the generosity of our Section members and corporate supporters, the Research and Education Fund continues to grow.

G EORG E E. S LOTKI N Excerpt from the Waterways chapter: вЂњNo history of the Northeastern Section is complete without a short biography of this indefatigable urologist. His later work with E.A. Mercer, вЂ�Case of epispadias with a double urethra,вЂ™ was published in The Journal of Urology in 1953. Dr. George E. Slotkin (1890-1971) was born in New York City but soon moved with his parents to Buffalo, NY, where he spent his professional career. We acknowledge him today as a founder, the first benefactor, and the first historian of the NS, but there is more to his story. Obviously, this change in his work reflects the change in urology from its early focus on genitourinary disease to its present focus as a surgical specialty. Dr. Slotkin was named Clinical Professor of Urology Emeritus in 1954 by the University of Buffalo Medical School and continued his private practice until 1964. After retirement, he continued to write, contributing a fascinating chapter about the history of the Northeastern Section to History of Urology. It is a priceless, logical record of carefully researched facts. If one were to hold up a mirror to the changing face of urology in the first half of the 20th century, it would be well reflected with an image of George E. Slotkin. A graduate of the University of Buffalo Medical School, Dr. Slotkin did postgraduate work at the New York City Post Graduate Hospital, the University of Vienna, and the University of Budapest. In 1918, he became a clinical professor of urology at the University of Buffalo. During the late 1940s, his clinical interest was tuberculosis of the urinary tract, which he treated with chalamagoric acid. Even though results of his work in this area remain inconclusive, other fruits of his career do not. Friends and colleagues of his time were fond of saying, вЂ�George Slotkin has three loves: urology, his wife Helene, and his Rolls Royce...not necessarily in that order!вЂ™ His early work, вЂ�Nephroptosis, a resurrected disease,вЂ™ was published in The Urologic and Cutaneous Review in 1938. His obituary notice implies that he may have been the first American invited to join the Canadian Urological Association. Dr. and Mrs. Slotkin did not have any children; his estate included a generous bequest to the Northeastern Section to provide funding for invited guest speakers at our annual meetings.вЂќ Meyer, Robert, MD and Margaret, вЂњHistory of the Northeastern Section of the American Urological Association: Waterways.вЂќ The American Urological Association Centennial History 1902 вЂ“ 2002.

Each tour group will meet at the Mansfield entrance in the lobby of the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth Hotel prior to departure. Guests are encouraged to pre-register for tours when they pre-register for the conference, as spots will fill quickly. On-site tour registration will take place at the hotel on Thursday, October 8 between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Payments can be made on site at the hotel for any tours that have not been pre-registered or pre-paid. Please note that if minimum numbers are not met, tours will be cancelled. Friday, October 9, 2009 Tour Option: Tour Time: Cost: Botanical Garden, Insectarium & BiodГґme 9 a.m. вЂ“ 3 p.m. $57 [Includes taxi transportation; professional tour guide; entrance admission to the Botanical Gardens, Insectarium and BiodГґme; guide and driver gratuities; and all applicable taxes.] Travel by reserved cab to spend a fabulous day exploring MontrГ©alвЂ™s flora and fauna! The MontrГ©al Botanical Garden (Le Jardin Botanique) houses a collection of 22,000 plant species and cultivars, 10 exhibition greenhouses, 30 thematic gardens, as well as teams of researchers and informative staff. The MontrГ©al Botanical Garden ranks as one of the worldвЂ™s largest and most spectacular botanical gardens. A magical exhibition of lanterns will be on display in the Chinese Garden while we are there. We will also explore the ever-popular MontrГ©al InsectariumвЂ” located adjacent to the Botanical GardenвЂ”which has welcomed hundreds of thousands of visitors intrigued by these misunderstood creatures, so often wrongly feared and despised. The goal of the Insectarium is to awaken visitors to the wonders of the insect world, and to explain how insects play an essential part in ensuring the EarthвЂ™s ecological balance. Following the Insectarium tour, the group will be escorted across the street and through the site of the 1976 Olympic Games to what was originally designed as the cycling track. An oasis in the heart of the city, the facility has been transformed into the MontrГ©al BiodГґme, which recreates four distinct climates that are home to the native flora and fauna of the region, truly some of the most beautiful ecosystems of the world: the lush and humid Tropical Forest, the Laurentian Forest, the St. Lawrence Marine Ecosystem, and the Polar Worlds of the Arctic and Antarctic.

Patients were randomized to receive either Vesicare 5 mg OD or tolterodine ER 4 mg OD. After 4 weeks of treatment, patients had the option to request a dose increase but were dummied throughout as product labelling only allowed an increase for those on Vesicare from 5 mg to 10 mg OD. Vesicare demonstrated a greater reduction in urgency and urge incontinence episodes from baseline than tolterodine ER2 U Urgency: -47% (-2.85) Vesicare vs -41% (-2.42) tolterodine ER U Urge incontinence: -61% (-1.42) Vesicare vs -39% (-0.83) tolterodine ER INDICATIONS: Vesicare (solifenacin succinate) is indicated for the treatment of overactive bladder in adults with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urinary urgency and urinary frequency. Safety and effectiveness in children have not yet been established. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Patients with urinary retention, dependent on dialysis, gastroparesis or narrow angle glaucoma. Patients who are hypersensitive to this drug or to any ingredient in the formulation or component of the container. Women of childbearing potential should be considered for treatment only if using adequate contraception. ADVERSE EVENTS: Expected side effects of antimuscarinic agents are dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision (accommodation abnormalities), urinary retention, and dry eyes. The most common adverse events reported in patients treated with Vesicare were dry mouth and constipation and the incidence of these side effects was higher in the 10 mg (27.6% and 13.4%, respectively) compared to the 5 mg (10.9% and 5.4%, respectively) dose group (4.2% and 2.9% for placebo, respectively).
