Journal club #7 | proPSMA and Penile Fractures(!)
Sunday, 5 April, 2026

Democracy in action! This month's GU Cast Journal Club papers were chosen by an audience vote at our GU Cast Live Event at EAU in London. Therefore today we focus on first, the landmark proPSMA paper which established the superior accuracy of PSMA PET/CT for staging unfavourable intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer (Lancet 2020). Then for something completely different, we dig out a paper called "Penile fractures - the merry price of Christmas", published in BJUI 2020. Thanks very much to our live audience for this one!We are delighted to welcome back our GU Cast Journal Club Editors, Dr Carlos Delgado and Dr Elena Berg who joins us in studio for the first time. Elena has just moved to Melbourne to join Carlos doing a Fellowship with GU Cast hosts, Renu Eapen and Declan Murphy. Links to papers below:1. Prostate-specific membrane antigen PET-CT in patients with high-risk prostate cancer before curative-intent surgery or radiotherapy (proPSMA): a prospective, randomised, multicentre study. Lancet 20202. Penile fractures: the price of a Merry Christmas BJUI 2023GU Cast Journal Club is supported by our Partner, MSD, through an unrestricted educational grant.Even better on our YouTube channelAbout GU Cast Journal Club:Each month, two papers are discussed, each of which are of importance to the GU Oncology community. These may be recent papers, or occasionally we will chose a classic landmark paper in GU Oncology. The objective is to draw attention to important papers in GU Oncology, and critique these in a robust manner. The key target audience is trainees working in Urology, Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Nuclear Medicine, and diagnostic specialties such as Radiology and Pathology. But any of our regular audience are likely to enjoy this Journal Club series.
