Abstract

A few months after the advent of COVID 19, urology and health bodies around the world issued various recommendations and practice lines about urology procedures with the aim of helping urologists to encounter this unexpected situation. The emphasis in such issues was on scheduling surgical operations with an aim to postpone them to a better situation in which the disease has presumably subsided and medical facilities, personnel, and equipment are eased. Most of these guide lines endowed 1 to 3-month delays for elective and non-urgent operations.(1) © 2020. All Rights Reserved.
