EAU Entrance Exam study plan

Map the urological oncology syllabus into a one-page topic tree covering kidney, urothelial, prostate, testicular, penile and adrenal tumours

List the TNM 8th-edition staging criteria for renal cell carcinoma, bladder cancer and prostate cancer from memory, then verify against a guideline and correct errors

Explain the rationale and limitations of PSA screening, including ERSPC and PLCO trial conclusions, in a written summary

Compare partial versus radical nephrectomy indications for a 4 cm and a 8 cm renal mass using guideline criteria

Differentiate non-muscle-invasive from muscle-invasive bladder cancer management pathways, including BCG failure options

Outline first-line systemic therapy for metastatic clear cell RCC and the role of cytoreductive nephrectomy

Describe active surveillance versus radical prostatectomy versus radiotherapy selection criteria for localized prostate cancer by risk group

Summarize germ cell tumour markers, IGCCCG risk classification and post-orchiectomy management

Classify urinary stones by composition and link each to a metabolic risk factor and dietary modification

Apply EAU urolithiasis guideline thresholds to decide conservative, SWL, ureteroscopy or PCNL management for given stone sizes and locations

Interpret non-contrast CT stone findings including Hounsfield density and skin-to-stone distance for SWL planning

Explain the metabolic workup for recurrent or high-risk stone formers and when to refer

Work through erectile dysfunction diagnosis and the stepwise treatment ladder from PDE5 inhibitors to prosthesis, including contraindications with nitrates

Explain testosterone deficiency evaluation, including timing of morning samples and contraindications to testosterone therapy

Summarize male infertility evaluation order, from semen analysis to genetic testing for azoospermia

Distinguish complicated from uncomplicated UTI and apply guideline antibiotic choices and durations

Describe prostatitis classification (NIH categories) and the management of chronic bacterial versus chronic pelvic pain syndrome

Interpret urodynamic tracings for detrusor overactivity, bladder outlet obstruction and detrusor underactivity using nomograms

Select surgical versus conservative management for stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse by patient profile

Explain the management of nocturnal enuresis and vesicoureteral reflux in children, including when imaging is indicated

Outline the acute scrotum triage in a child, distinguishing testicular torsion from torsion of the appendix testis

Describe the postnatal workup of antenatally detected hydronephrosis by SFU grade

Compare living versus deceased donor kidney transplantation workup, including crossmatch and HLA matching principles

Explain immunosuppression induction and maintenance regimens and the recognition of acute rejection versus calcineurin inhibitor toxicity

Outline the management of renal trauma by AAST grade, including when to image and when to intervene

Describe urethral stricture management options from dilation to graft urethroplasty and their selection criteria

Summarize the acute management of testicular and penile trauma, including penile fracture repair timing

Review basic renal physiology, including glomerular filtration, tubular handling and acid-base regulation, and connect each to a clinical scenario

Interpret CT, MRI and ultrasound findings for the most common urological diagnoses, including Bosniak cyst classification

Explain the principles of PET imaging in prostate cancer and when PSMA PET changes management

Revisit stone and endourology questions missed in week 3 and re-derive the correct answers without notes

Complete two full-length timed mock exams under exam conditions and record per-domain scores

Analyse every incorrect answer by domain and root cause, categorizing as knowledge gap, misread or reasoning error

Re-study the two weakest domains using only your own notes and guideline summaries

Recite the key guideline thresholds and staging tables from memory for all nine domains
