Thank you to the five hospitals (Whipps Cross Hospital, St Bartholomew’s Hospital, University College London Hospitals, King’s College Hospital, and Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital) for hosting EAUN26 delegates. The visits included guided tours and informative lectures showcasing urology practice and nurse‑led services in the UK and even a hospital museum displaying nine centuries of health care in London.

Two EAUN‑HOT courses were held during the meeting: there was a practical, nurse‑focused masterclass on erectile dysfunction, and an interactive flexible cystoscopy course. Two ESU courses also took place, focusing on urolithiasis (from aetiology and risk factors to treatment and follow‑up), and on innovations in renal cancer management in both radical and metastatic settings.

You can view a selection of EAUN26 photos to get a further impression of the meeting and activities.

The 27th International EAUN Meeting will take place in Amsterdam, The Netherlands from 20-22 March 2027 (with hospital visits and Nurses' dinner on 19 March). We look forward to seeing you there!
