Genitourinary surgery and Arthur Jacobs: father of urology in Glasgow.
Arthur Jacobs (1899-1974) was the father of urology in Glasgow. His extensive experience with genitourinary tuberculosis, ureterosigmoidostomy, and bladder augmentation were far ahead of his time. He became an expert in retropubic prostatectomy and was a pioneer in early imaging techniques.
