Just a few things I learned at #AUA17

Great meeting in Boston at the AUA. Here are just a few things, at the top of my head, that I learned.

• Neonatal circumcision protects against penile cancer but not penile warts
• HPV strain 16 is the most common type associated with penile cancer
• The HPV vaccine in close to 100% effective vs strain 16

And from another course:

• Using a tunica vaginalis patch can result in more testis saves during treatment for acute testis torsion
• It is ok to place a testis prosthesis at the time of an orchiectomy for non-salvageable testes

and more...
