Walsh Wins Top Honors

In recent months, Patrick C. Walsh, M.D., has received some of the highest honors in urology the world has to offer. These include:

• The Ramon Guiteras Award, the highest honor bestowed by the American Urological Association
• The Charles Huggins Award, the highest honor given by the Society of Urologic Oncology
• Honorary Membership in the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland
• Honorary Membership in the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and
• The John Carroll Society Medal

In addition, the major textbook of urology has been renamed in Walsh’s honor. For the last 25 years, Walsh has been the senior editor of Campbell’s Textbook of Urology, widely considered to be the "bible" of urology worldwide. The textbook, which has expanded over the years to encompass four volumes and 4,000 pages, will now be named the Campbell-Walsh Textbook of Urology.
