Southern African and International delegates attended the launch, which signified a new commitment in the region to minimally invasive surgery in Urology. This society represents all African countries, and has members from South Africa, Namibia, Libya, Kenya and Nigeria. It is affiliated to the world Endourology Society, with whom it shares a journal, the Journal of Endourology. After obtaining his degree as a urologist at the Nelson R Mandela School of Medicine in South Africa, he furthered his Endourology training at the Washington University in St. Louis, USA and recently completed his Robotic Surgery Fellowship at Irvine University California in the USA. His main focus in his professional and academic career is laparoscopic urology where he played a leading role in the development and training of laparoscopic urological surgery in South Africa and has developed numerous innovative laparoscopic techniques in laparoscopic urological surgery. Dr Conradie has received a number of national and international awards in recognition of his work and clinical research in the field of Endourology. He is a founding member of the Southern African Endourology Society and is currently serving as the President of the Society. Dr Conradie has also been appointed as the president of the World Congress of Endourology and ESWL for 2016 to be hosted in Cape Town, South Africa. After obtaining his degree as a urologist at the Nelson R Mandela School of Medicine in South Africa, he furthered his Endourology training at the Washington University in St. Louis, USA and also completed his Robotic Surgery Fellowship at Irvine University California in the USA. The Southern African Endourological Society has been set up under the auspices of the World Endourological Society to promote training in and development of Endourology in Southern Africa. Doctors and patients are invited to read up about Endourology, and the benefits of choosing minimally invasive techniques when managing urological problems. These videos are useful to demonstrate the different techniques in the robotic surgery with the specific aim on robotic prostatectomies and other robotic reconstructive procedures. Retrograde intrarenal surgery & PCNC: View a selection of retrograde intrarenal surgery videos as well as PCNC videos illustrating techniques to treat kidney stones, transitional cancer of kidney and bladder as well as congenital anomalies. Laparoscopic urological surgery has been popularized over the past decade in SA to such an extent that the need for minimally invasive treatment options is more often requested than conventional open surgery. This places tremendous pressure on the urologist to provide this service. The aim with these guidelines is to provide insight to the prospective urologist who wants to embark on laparoscopic urological surgery training as well as those who want to provide this service in his/her practice. This document serves as a guide to Laparoscopic Urological Surgery in private practice as well as in training hospitals as an initiative to support those urologists (registrars as well as urologists in private practice) who require guidance on laparoscopic surgery in private practice as well as provides possibilities of a training program in laparoscopy.
