EAU Entrance Exam study guide
EAU Entrance Exam · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The EAU Entrance Examination is the assessment pathway associated with the European Association of Urology, the specialty society behind the European Board of Urology (EBU) curriculum and the European urology training standards. Candidates are typically urology residents nearing the end of training, recently qualified urologists seeking to demonstrate a European-level knowledge base, and international graduates whose national training differs from the European model. The EAU Entrance Exam study guide has 9 sections and about 4,044 words.
01Urological Oncology
This domain tests whether you can place a tumour into the correct stage, grade and risk group and then select the treatment that matches that risk. Prostate, bladder, kidney, testis, upper tract urothelial and penile cancer all appear, and the examiners reward precise numbers: PSA, ISUP grade groups, TNM and EAU risk categories.
472 words, about 2 min02Andrology and Male Sexual Health
Andrology questions test your handling of erectile dysfunction, testosterone deficiency, male infertility, Peyronie disease, priapism and ejaculatory disorders. The examiners favour pharmacodynamics, contraindications and the correct sequence of treatment escalation.
467 words, about 2 min03Endourology and Urolithiasis
This domain tests stone imaging, the choice between observation, shockwave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy and percutaneous surgery, and metabolic prevention. Expect questions built around stone size, location and whether the system is infected or obstructed.
481 words, about 2 min04Functional Urology and Female Urology
Functional urology tests your ability to turn a symptom pattern into a diagnosis and then into a stepped treatment plan. It covers male lower urinary tract symptoms, overactive bladder, stress incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse and neurogenic bladder, with urodynamics used selectively rather than reflexively.
463 words, about 2 min05Infections and Inflammatory Diseases of the Urinary Tract
This domain tests classification of urinary infection, antimicrobial choice under resistance pressure, and recognition of the emergencies. The recurring theme is distinguishing uncomplicated from complicated infection and knowing when imaging or drainage is mandatory.
424 words, about 2 min06Pediatric Urology
Paediatric urology questions centre on antenatal hydronephrosis, vesicoureteric reflux, obstructed systems, undescended testis and the acute scrotum, plus hypospadias. The exam rewards correct timing of surgery and recognition of the few true emergencies.
436 words, about 2 min07Renal Transplantation and Vascular Surgery
Transplant questions test donor and recipient selection, immunosuppression, and the differential diagnosis of a rising creatinine. Vascular questions cover renal artery disease, aortic pathology and the urological complications of transplantation.
434 words, about 2 min08Trauma and Reconstruction
This domain tests injury grading, the decision between conservative and operative management, and the reconstructive ladder for urethral and ureteric strictures. Most marks come from knowing what not to do, especially catheterising a suspected urethral injury.
430 words, about 2 min09Basic Science and Diagnostic Imaging
This domain tests applied physiology, pathology, imaging selection and the statistics needed to interpret a test. Questions often combine a clinical scenario with a numerical or anatomical answer, so precision matters more than breadth.
