The Kenya Society of Haematology and Oncology (KESHO) organized its first annual symposium on prostate cancer on 26th March 2022. The event was hybrid in nature, in-person as well as virtual. The event attracted over 280 virtual participants and 62 participants in person.

The talks covered diagnosis, screening, risk stratification, management of prostate cancer, the role of various treatment modalities, as well as case presentations. The event started early in the morning and was divided into four sessions, each one of them followed by a questions and answers session for participants to engage with all the speakers of that session. A sponsor presentation was part of the program in the end. The presenters and participants included mid-career professionals, students, residents, as well as veteran professors.

The event concluded with remarks from KESHO Chair Dr. Miriam Mutebi who thanked all the speakers and participants for sparing their day-long time to make the event a success.
