We hope to welcome all of you to the 26th Congress of the European Association of Urology, to be held from 18-22 March 2011 in Vienna, Austria.

Please check Opens external link in new windowwww.eauvienna2011.org for more information.

Urology Week

Urology Week is an annual awareness campaign of the EAU and the national urological societies in Europe. This public awareness event, held annually in September, informs people, especially men over 50, about urological diseases, their treatments and the work of the urologist.  

Urological conditions such as prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction affect the lives of millions of men and women every day. Shame and undetected symptoms are among the key reasons why many Europeans neglect to seek medical help when experiencing urological complaints. And that is too bad, since very often help is available.

For more information please take a look at Opens external link in new windowwww.urologyweek.org and see the events that are organised all over Europe.
