While there is a prolific list of minimally invasive procedures for lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic obstruction, the American Urological Association has yet to define their roles in the treatment algorithm. Therefore, it remains a challenge for urologists to identify the most appropriate treatment option for a particular patient.

While osteoporosis is more common in women, older men are at greater risk of mortality in hospital from fracture; they also have more osteoporosis‐associated complications. Risk assessment, screening and treatment are therefore important for men as well as women.

Prostate cancer is associated with an increased risk of bone‐related complications, which is made worse by some of the drugs used to manage the cancer. The resulting fractures and spinal cord compression have a significant impact on patients’ physical, functional and emotional wellbeing, so risks need to be assessed and managed.

Since the COVID‐19 pandemic, telemedicine has provided a lifeline for non‐emergency healthcare provision. However, with its widespread implementation, many clinicians wonder what the litigation considerations might be for telemedicine. This paper reviews the legal cases that have shaped UK clinical negligence legislation and their application to telemedicine. Key considerations for avoiding litigation are also outlined.
