AB  - Objective: Publications of congress presentations (oral/poster) contribute to the literature by creating new information. In this study, we examinedthe publication rate of poster and oral presentations at the 1st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye held in 2012.Materials and Methods: We investigated the congress booklet belonging to the 1st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye held in3-7 October 2012. We investigated the publication rates of 176 poster and 103 oral presentations under the headings of uro-oncology, andrology,pediatric urology, endourology, transplantation, continence and other by searching the PubMed and Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E)databases.Results: Of the 176 poster and 103 oral presentations, 79 (28.3%) were subsequently published. The publication rate in journals included in theSCI-E was 24.3%. While 33% of oral presentations were published, 25.5% of poster presentations became publications and this difference was notfound to be statistically significant (p=0.48). The mean duration from presentation to publication was 21.1 months.Conclusion: The publication rate of presentations at the 1st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye was higher than in mostnational congresses in different disciplines, but lower than many international congresses in the field of urology. Future studies investigatingcongress data from several consecutive years will provide clearer results.
