We will hold the 9th Endoluminal Technology Symposium organized by Asian Urological Society of Endoluminal Technology (AUSET) at Kobe, Japan on 28-29th Nov 2025. First of all, I would like to thank Prof Sung Yong Cho, Chair of AUSET for having a valuable opportunity to take place this annual meeting at Kobe. And then, I would like to thank Prof Hideaki Miyake, Chair of Urology Department in Kobe University and Masato Fujisawa, President of Kobe University to support me.

Urologists can manage a lot kind of specific surgical procedures such as open/laparoscopic/robotic assisted and endoluminal surgeries in our daily clinical practice. Especially, robotic assisted and endoluminal innovation have rapidly been developed lately. New technology can change our surgical methods and our mind for treatment. Simultaneously, New technology will bring new complications and clinical course as well. Therefore, we have to catch up our knowledge and change the mind for the patient. As rapid advancement of endoluminal technology, we must need to discuss and share the consensus of our treatment more. Further endoluminal innovation has still been coming now. Therefore, we will prepare the best contents of endoluminal surgeries this time for participants who are interested in it.

Anyway, please enjoy this event and Kobe city in Japan. “Time will be yours soon!!”
