On 16–17 October 2026, the Scientific Symposium of the Mazovian and Łódź Branches of the Polish Urological Association (PTU) took place at the Ossa Conference and Training Centre in Poland. The event was attended by members of the Urology Department at Dr Jan Biziel University Hospital No. 2 in Bydgoszcz.

The main focus of this year’s symposium was urinary stone disease. The scientific programme covered modern diagnostic approaches, patient selection for surgical treatment, the metabolic and endocrine factors involved in stone formation, as well as recurrence prevention and follow-up care after treatment.

An important part of the meeting was a live surgery session, which provided participants with an opportunity to explore practical aspects of stone treatment, including the management of staghorn stones and the use of endourological techniques. The symposium also offered a valuable forum for sharing clinical experience and discussing optimal treatment strategies for patients requiring comprehensive care.

Participation in scientific meetings organised by the Polish Urological Association enables our team to expand its expertise, stay up to date with current medical knowledge and learn about new approaches relevant to everyday clinical practice.

Continuous professional development and the exchange of clinical experience are essential to the growth of our Department and our commitment to providing care based on current medical evidence.
