About GU Cast Journal Club:
Each month, two papers are discussed, each of which are of importance to the GU Oncology community. These may be recent papers, or occasionally we will chose a classic landmark paper in GU Oncology
. The objective is to draw attention to important papers in GU Oncology, and critique these in a robust manner
. The key target audience is trainees working in Urology, Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Nuclear Medicine, and diagnostic specialties such as Radiology and Pathology. But any of our regular audience are likely to enjoy this Journal Club series.

Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) - one of our perennial favourite and contentious topics on GU Cast. Today we have both Alberto Briganti (Milano, ITA), and Tobias Maurer (Hamburg, GER), in the studio. Two hugely experienced prostate cancer surgeons, both with huge expertise in PLND. Alberto's name synonomous with PLND due to the eponymous nomograms he has deveoped over the years. And Tobias with his pioneering experience in PSMA radio-guided PLND.
