The Transition of Urological Practice for Forty Years in Juntendo University

Abstract

　I enrolled in the Juntendo University Urological Course in 1982 and worked at Juntendo for 40 years until I retired in 2022. The transition of Urology had been slow until recent years. In the last 20-30 years, Urological practice has made significant progress. I will look back on the 40 years of Juntendo University and describe it in this article. In particular, the transition and breakthrough in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer were remarkable. This point will be described mainly based on the experience at Juntendo Nerima Hospital.
