Dr. Prieto: Leading the Way in Pediatric Urology at the CAU & SIUP Meeting in Panama City, Panama

Dr. Prieto recently represented Pediatric Urology of San Antonio among the world’s leading pediatric urologists at the CAU and SIUP Meeting in Panama City, Panama, where he both served on an international panel discussing Hypospadias repair and presented on the surgical management of congenital anomalies of the kidneys and double collecting systems (duplicated ureters).

During the panels, Dr. Prieto joined global experts to discuss current advances in diagnosis, repair, and long-term outcomes for Hypospadias. He also shared reflections on the history and growth of pediatric urology in Ibero-America, tracing how collaboration across Latin countries has shaped today’s innovative surgical approaches. His insights emphasized family-centered care and minimally invasive methods that reduce recovery time while maintaining lasting functional and cosmetic results.

In his individual presentation on congenital kidney anomalies, Dr. Prieto highlighted innovations in imaging, surgical mapping, and reconstruction that enhance both safety and long-term kidney function. By contributing his expertise on this international stage, he continues to advocate for techniques that minimize complications, speed healing, and give families confidence in their child’s care.
