Inside Nephrology: A Weekly Review
Nefrologia
New Frontiers in Genitourinary Care
This week, we explore the evolving intersection of nephrology and urology—from advances in genitourinary cancer treatments to breakthroughs in benign prostatic hyperplasia management and neuromodulation. We discuss the trade-offs between survival and quality of life, highlight promising innovations like closed-loop systems and radiomics, and revisit the legacy of an early pioneer in integrative care.
