Educational workshop – Detour

In the days from 4th to 5th October 2017, an educational workshop with foreign participation on the topic of extra-anatomical Detour stent was held.

MUDr. Andrzej Wrona from Poland visited the Czech Republic. MD. Wrona has experience with implantations of 26 Detour extra-anatomical stents. There were also other participants present such as Paul Lemonie – CEO Porgés and MUDr. Aurimas Macionis from Lithuania, who was trained as a future supervisor of the Extra-Anatomical Stent for the Republic of Lithuania.

The program was divided into two days. The social section took place on October 4th where we discussed the individual patients’ cases and compared the work conditions in the individual regions. On 5th October, a surgery day was held.

The team of MUDr. Petra Klézla / Urology Clinic of FNKV was present and also the doctors from other workplaces accepted invitation to the workshop: MUDr. Milan Čermák / Department of Urology, Faculty Hospital, ÚVN, MUDr. Otakar Mareš / the Head of Urology at the Bulovka Hospital and the Head of Urology Clinic FNHK MUDr. Josef Košina.

By this activity we managed to operate on 2 patients, to whom we returned a better life without permanent nephrostomy. At the same time, this event had a high social impact for PROMEDICA PRAHA GROUP, a.s. and the PORGES division, as the director of FNKV Doc. MUDr. Robert Grill attended the workshop and found it very interesting. We managed to bring together 3 important Prague urological workplaces and one of Hradec Králové and inspire them to the Porgés products.
